Guild Wars 2

It would be nice if you could repeat personal story encounters you’ve already completed.

I enjoyed many of the encounters and it would be nice to go back and relive them.

Also there were encounters that I found very challenging and I often completed though a war of attrition. The ability to attempt these again and see if I could learn how to get through them without dying so much would be fun.

Being able to repeat an encounter would also help when people are asking for advice as they’ve got stuck trying it for themselves. Often I know that I’ve managed to complete it but it was a while ago and I’ve forgotten the tactics I used.

I wouldn’t envisage any rewards from doing the encounters again. It would merely be for the fun of doing them.

I would imagine you’d open up the hero panel, go to my story, and select the appropriate step in you story from the list. As well as the current description of what happened there’d be a button to click which said something like “Relive this encounter”. You’d then be taken to the instance in which the encounter took place and returned to where you were afterwards.

This seems like a cool idea, especially during dramatic points in your storyline you liked.

/Signed reliving the moment would be pretty cool.

I’d like that too. I find I forget a lot of the story while waiting to level for the next step. It would be nice at level 80 to run back through them all to get the story at once.

Totally agree, this is a great idea. For one, I’d love to repeat some with a group of friends and see how they differ from completing them alone. Additionally I’d like to experience some now they’ve been tweaked/un-bugged.

Reliving the moment; I’m all for that!

I like this too. It would be a nice feature to have in the personal story section of the hero panel.

/signed. Lots of really cool scenarios and fun cut-scenes I’d really like to see again.

It could be like that pool in the hall of monuments from the eye of the north expansion from guild wars 1

i like the HoM idea. if you don’t really like what the HoM has to offer, there isn’t a reason to go back. i walked around to absorb the lore (it was there, it is now old ruins), though never returned.

upon finishing story for the second time, give is some kind of way to open the Xunlai chests. I left some nice gear in there from Guild Wars 1…

or implement something like Borderlands 2, with the vault keys – the higher your level, the increased chance you get something awesome – so it’s worth holding onto them for awhile until lv80. you could get multiple Xunlai keys, using skillpoints (because there’s already enough karma and gold sinks) which will open the chests. make it so that you can access the chests once a week, or something.

Agreed. Being able to relive story line events would be a lot of fun. In GW1 you could re-do a mission even if you had passed it before, so in GW2 reliving a story event would be similar. Also in GW1 if you came over with a character from another continent you’d see some verbiage like “you are about to relive events as they transpired prior to your arrival…” – so at least there’s precedence for this type of thing.

I like the idea of being able to replay personal story missions. What about the choices that you didn’t pick? I guess that should be something left for your alts to do.

/Signed I love this idea and was actually talking about it with my guild the other day and we all agreed. Stories like battle for Ft Trinity and other long-winded epic ones with the awesome 2.5d cutscenes would be a blast to replay. And I agree 100% that there should NOT be rewards for this. Just fun factor.

See I agree! Or if only I can go back and watch the cutscenes and dialogue… I ask myself why I cant see them each time I look at my story.

Agreed, There are some really fun moments in the story that i am saddened i can’t visit again simply because i completed them.

Off topic: I posted something similar about an arena close to lornar’s pass/snowden drifts in Gendarran fields that once completed refuses to let you fight there. Kind of a bummer

Agreed. I do like certain parts of the storyline. Might even be useful to reread parts of the storyline you may have missed or not fully understood due to being in a rush or something.

Absolutely. There was a scene at the end of the personal story that had everyone walking towards the camera and I’m like… OOOOOOooooo was waiting for them to come closer and wanted to screen cap it… but NOPE. Denied. And I’m like well kitten #8230; I wanted to commemorate making it that far, print it out but meh meh…

agreed I love this idea

Bumping, need this in the game badly, I wanted to go take some screenies of the end scenes and missed my chance.

/signed I would like to do this to get some of the items again in case I feel like transmuting them.
