I think most people will agree, leveling in this game was great. I see lots of people wishing the story would reset, or continue…things like that.
Suggestion:
When you hit 80, you have the option of leveling up another set of levels. For arguments sake, call them “paragon” levels or something like that.
-Map completion resets (achievements do not reset).
-All hearts, poi’s, waypoints..everything is undiscovered as if you were and now are a level 1.
-All traits are reset, and no points to spend yet.
-Faction choice is reset
-Every X amount of levels, you gain meaningful reward for re-leveling. T6 mats would do the trick.
This would solve/help:
-Zone populations
-Reduce the grind of T6 mats at max level
-Spread the population out
-Let us experience the 1-80 game again, because for many it was the best part.
-More chance at precursor. Possibly no scavenger hunt needed?
-Experience another faction
I would redo this in a heartbeat. Arenanet would make my dreams come true if they gave me a reason and the ability to relevel. And the extrinsic incentive would be the T6 rewards and precursor chance. I would totally be back on board with arenanet if they did this.
