Completed a questline on an alt? now it’s done on all your characters until you turn it off.
Did a campaign until a certain point? Now all your characters have that same progress.
Have a bugged questline that’s in the wrong phase? not anymore! (some legion and cataclysm quests are huge pains in the pants)
Warband quest mode.
A “useful” version of quest sync mode.
How many times did you join a raid or want to go to the maw or zereth mortis to do something, but this character didn’t do the skips to get there? Countless for me. I still have some characters that have the maw debuff but there’s no skip for them to get rid of it. The progress is mishmashed all over the place between my alts and I have no way of knowing which questlines are done or not without addons.
This would streamline a lot of things. Like when you want to change to a different class as your main, you dont go to Vale of eternal blossoms and find out you didn’t do the 1-3 hour gruelling intro to BFA that you’ve done a dozen times arleady (It would have a HUGE impact on people wanting to finish the class halls for alts, due to reputation and several hours-long questlines in different zones)
Since you can’t do the “second part” of most campaign skips while you’re in a raid, ie. Shadowlands - can’t complete ‘pick a covenant in a raid’ and countless other examples. In general the “raid blocking quest completion” is extremely tedious especially when it’s old content.
I also want to suggest some sort of system that lets you save a lockout of old raids, so if you only want to kill a certain boss, you dont need to lose 30 minutes just to get back to the boss again.
Perhaps it could be in the raid lockout window - “extend raid lockout” could have a sub selection that lets you select which bosses you want to extend. OLD content only though.
This is something i’ve t hought of for a loooong time but I think now there’s a lot of people actually farming old content that maybe it would get the attention necessary.
Thanks.
E: I mean to suggest this for max level characters only, and I’m not sure how devs feel about synchronizing the latest patch’ campaign across characters, but I haven’t engaged in any current content questlines purely because I play alts left right and centre, I would have to commit several hours on one character to finish it - AFTER i figure out which one has the most progress on the questline. Another example might be the blue dragonflight campaign that lets you use the tarecgosa mount without the staff.
