Guild Wars 2

i believe your misunderstanding the situation, almost no one will be willing to make a new character to play fractal of the mist after spending 30+ hours in it on 1 character and even if you are allowed to play alts you are not limited to the high level dungeon, you can self reduce difficulty of dungeons… that is why they gave us that option, and furthermore farming is about efficiency, no one enjoys farming if they do not get anything in return.. so i highly doubt anyone would want to spend 50+ hours gaining an alt to the same difficulty as their main when they can just play their main and farm what really matters

1) yeah they do feel different, and if your not comfortable with that class would you really run a high level of FOTM

2+3) you need to understand that gaining levels for fractal of the mist is a very mind numbing process, currently ranked 7 and that took hours upon hours running through it… i can ensure you, me and about 90% of the community are not going to level a 2nd alt to do the same thing over and over just to have the leisure of playing an alt for it and i believe tokens are account bound rather than soul bound so that answers your question about being geared… i honestly see people spending 100~200+ hours leveling their char to a decent difficulty where exotic FOTM weapons drop, just thinking about repeating that process again… going through the lower level dungeons for no real reason other than to play an alt yeah, no thanks. lets be honest the majority of the people who start in a few weeks or a month will need to hope to get lucky for a grp that much is true but even by restricting the account bound difficulty that fact will not change

Well for many of us who started throwing hours upon hours into this dungeon, it would be great to have the difficulty account bound rather than character bound…. just because at some point we all will reach the burn out phase and to relieve that having an alt run rather than 1 char only would be a great relief to have a diversified experience without having to replay all the lvls from 1

Example: Hey lets get a group together this thursday to run arah… flash to thursday oh hey look arah is bugged already i guess we need to wait a week…. solution…. if we could get resets sooner or at least have it so dungeons always stay open and increase incentives to do dynamic event chains for dungeons so that even if they dont bug its worth doing the dynamic event….. this way an entire server isnt locked out of a dungeon for weeks on end….
