Prestige or New Game+ System

[Crimsonclaws]

Ok, so in Ascension WoW there is this system that is know as the Prestige System. Basically, it is a mode where upon reaching level 60, you can go to a Prestige NPC and can trade away your level in exchange for a large reward! In other words, you go back to level 1, but in exchange this time when you level up the character again you have a permanent stat or equipment upgrade! Now just to be clear, I am not suggesting a 1 to 1 copy of this system. While this is amazing in Ascension, this is NOT Ascension. So, obviously in the context of this suggestion the system would of course be adapted to better align with OctoWoW's own vision/interpretation of WoW.

I love this! Would solve some issues of limited replay due to how old the client is, specifically with absolutely nothing being account bound. I see this as a way to start a long journey of doing multiple challenges on the same toon, but you actually get to keep those titles now! Of course, people who don't want to do it don't have to. Would be a huge win for octowow as it brings in more play styles, and this more people into the community.

Recommend updating the poll (not sure if possible): options should be:

Id play it
Wouldn't play it, but i support it
Actively against it

With the poll as-is, it's tough to know for sure how the "against" people are.

If this is implemented, the reward can't be any upgrade to combat proficiency (like permanently added stats).

EDIT: Adding additional professions would be cool, but on second thought it eliminates the possibility to add unique benefits for professions (to make them more equal compared to Engineering), which I prefer: https://octowow.st/forum/viewtopic.php?p=6524

I cast my vote, lets hope it gets picked up by the dev's

But adding a new profession could be a neat reward since it doesn't provide any competitive advantage in combat, and it makes sense that a person could learn more skills without "forgetting" their other skills.

That's a good suggestion. I was looking at maybe they can keep the rep they already have with a faction when they Prestige
