I heard something about; If you complete the renown on 1 char it transfers to all new chars you create after completion. Is that still not a thing? That is so sad. That is a big [moderated] blocker for end game. Actually for me I don’t want to play more characters now. It’s a big grind to get all the renown done. I don’t want to do that on 6 characters! And yes, I play all the classes every season. This is such a big disappointment.
Renown is a one time thing, do it once and you never have to do it again. Once unlocked, all skill points, paragon points, potions and obol caps are unlocked accountwide, and will carry over from season to season.
It’s not the most fun thing to do in the world, but once its done, its done and you never have to worry about it again. The only exception is that softcore and hardcore does not share the unlocks, so if you play both modes, you have to do it twice.
I started fresh this season and did all the renown and quests anew. Only to find out that when I made my second char I had to do all the Strongholds again. Dungeons are behind a wall now and a few waypoints. So it’s not entirely true is it? Only thing that I could do was skip quests. Am I missing something here? Maybe I did something wrong tho.
Btw, something must be wrong. I still have some renown to do on my new char. The last 3 are still locked for me.
Renown is account wide, strongholds are not, and I agree, its annoying to have to do them on every character every season, but apparently they are good for power leveling, as the stronghold bosses give a good chunk of xp.
As for renown being locked, they are indeed locked but the worthwile rewards, such as skill points, options and obol caps are not locked, they are auto claimed on alts. The only rewards you can earn from doing renown on alts are gold and xp
If strongholds are not account wide, they should put the waypoints and dungeons outside. It’s not even an option to do them now. It’s a must. Ah well, nothing that I can do about it. Thanks for the reply
Not sure what the complaint is about here…The Strongholds are part of the campaign, so that’s auto completed along the journey, and once you finish the campaign your between level 50-60 and you completed the first 3 renown rewards. Just need to run like 4-5 dungeons after for the paragon points and your done. That took me all of 30 mins at the end of the campaign.
So, I HEARD ← that renown was going to be shared on all chars once done. As long as you made the char after completing it all. Let that be clear, if that’s not true, ignore all the rest.
The complaint is very simple, but let me explain that simplicity.
I started this season with the Lilith main quest, then proceed in Nahantu. While doing all that I did all the renown, opened every Stronghold and a lot of dungeons. I opened everything so I don’t have to do it again on my next 5 characters. My next 5 characters will take a lot of time as well (just like my first, I’m long from ready). Without the whole map open for my newbies, it’s time-wasting to get the waypoints and dungeon access that I already have on my first char. It should be all available. Been there, done that.
So my complaint is that I have to redo all of it, accept the main quest. It doesn’t transfer to other characters. I mean, that’s what they mean with the renown gets transferred to all new made characters, right? … right? 0-0
I’m going to be honest and my own devil’s advocate, the fact that paragon is now shared on all characters is a big win in time. I didn’t care about that part to be fair, since that is a grind I like to do, but it does save time. Time I can spend on … renown.
