Should Progression Be Account Wide?
Simple question here folks. What do you think about progression in the game being account wide?
Meaning: Instead of having to grind the same quests and campaigns three separate times for all characters, we’d have the option to play whichever class we want, at any time we want, still advancing the same progress for the quest or campaign, and unlocking the rewards or further access to other activities not just for that particular character, but for the entire account.
I feel like this would greatly alleviate some of the overwhelming feeling of monotony such a mindless grind currently presents. Especially those of us with many other responsibilities who simply cannot devote the same amount of time to the game as we used to, but would still love to have all three of our characters up to the most current state of the game. Thoughts?

1 ReplyI have a warlock that at 700 light, can't do any endgame content with basically because I refuse to do the forsaken campaign a third time. 1st time awesome, 2nd time still pretty good but a 3rs what a slog.
-
Wow thanks for all the feedback. Interesting to see positions span across the spectrum.
-
Yes and no. Yes for things like Forges, exotic quests, and stuff of the sort should be a one time thing per account. No for main campaigns and story missions.
-
1 ReplyNot for story and campaigns no. I like to experience it differently with each character.
-
Campaign I enjoy doing three times because sometimes I catch new things on repeat playthroughs. But trash like upgrading the gambit prime synthesizer or unlocking all the forges should be done account wide.
-
I feel like, realistically, this should be implemented for D3. Our guardians are legendarily gifted with the light, and classes are by and large manufactured by us...so let us pick which form of light manipulation we use same as we pick weapons.
-
1 ReplyIt wasnice in D1 where you could infuse different class armors into each other. As long as you got to max light on one character, you could cut the bullshit and infuse another straight to max.
-
1 Replyyou know, i had this idea brewing in my mind recently. why not play on all of your characters at once?! if you're a solo player, you can summon your other characters as your fireteam to fight and level up alongside you and it would frankly be awesome
-
Chalices, pinnacles, and dear god those dreadful forge quests.
-
1 ReplyProgression like pinnacle weapons yes. Progression like story no. I like being able to run the story on multiple characters because they are technically separate guardians. In terms of quest, I feel exotics could be and so should pinnacle weapons.

6 RepliesEdited by whateverman7: 7/8/2019 8:29:21 PMVoted no. Reason being we have 3 characters, and i enjoy using all 3. I use having to do the activities for all 3 to help build them up, collect gear, etc. I feel making it account wide would negate that, and in a sense 'force' us to pick 1 character. With that said, ultimately, it would depend on what they decided to make account wide. Progression towards pinnacle weapons, yes. Story, no.

20 RepliesEdited by Mowbz: 7/8/2019 5:46:22 PMWow. We are down to 15% non casuals. Sad state of affairs. I don’t know why they don’t just sell you the game with 100% completion, all weapons and armour and spare materials. Why oh why do we have to play the game we bought. Why bungie?
-
Don't mind leveling my characters but hate going through the story more than once.
-
3 RepliesI would be interested in the breakdown of the Yes Vs. No by way of hours played, game investement etc. Are those who say Yes more casual, play many games etc, do the No answers, play all the time, heavy raiders and endgame players etc.
-
Yes, I play a decent amount, and I still haven't beaten forsaken with my titan,(3rd character) which than means I can't do any annual pass with him. It just gets tiresome doing the same story crap over.
-
Three mountaintops, who's up? Three 40 nodes on Mars? Yeah, entire forest of raised hands. We can't put everything into same proverbial basket, so to speak. I've been playing campaigns on all 3 characters and I've been enjoying most of those (I don't like Cayde's death, but I like the guy). Most of quests as well - still doing parts of Martian "legacy" on my "newer" characters and having fun there. As much as I like forges, doing Vex transponder on newer characters isn't much fun. Because I'm not Esoterickk, I can't solo that heroic public events. In other areas - maybe, but not there. Landscape prevents me from seeing through, and when I play there is barely anyone. That's why my hunter still haven't completed that quest. So for the most part, I'm up for "the more the merrier". But some quest steps are just so obnoxiously terrible I don't know how, if ever, bungee tested those and approved them.

3 RepliesYes. Like the exotics quest. At least once I'm done with a exotic quest I go to collections and get the gun three two more times for my other characters, I'm not doing a boring quest three times.
-
They are already starting to do this. The menagerie chalice for example. I'm fine with exotic quests being guardian based, bonus powerful drops.
-
85% yes, 16% no. That's a 101% . Excuse my maths but.....😂
-
This should exist but optional.
-
I agree with this for only exotic quests and the forges .. Redoing all that shit to open them was really annoying
-
3 RepliesD2 is designed to be more of a grind so whether certain things should or shouldn't be account wide how things are now are most likely to stay the same. Personally, I don't like having to run everything with all 3 characters and the way D2 is designed it part of why I haven't even bothered to level up all 3. I used to in d1 every DLC but D2 doesn't have that incentive for me like D1 actually did.
-
Doesn't matter at this point for me.
-
2 RepliesStory progression should be character by character. Seasonal progression should be account wide, especially for content unlocks.
-
So far we have had quests 1) that can be done once on each character and progress individually 2) that can be done on each character and progress account wide I like it on one character and I’m done. It’s annoying to do some of these quests three times just so they don’t show up as abandoned or stuck in your pursuits for eternity.
