I've tried every hero but for me there are a couple of hero's that i enjoy way more than others. Being able to make a 2nd sylvie for eg. so i can do the gearing process again (my favourite part) would be nice.
#Being able to have more than 1 of the same hero.

that's what seasonal resets are for
and you can always store your gear and start from zero if you want
wicked vessel
ye no that's not the point

I think it's not reasonable to expect this to be added to the game as it seems to be very niche.
What psycho is proposing, is that you can close to 100% percent emulate what you are asking for by yourself.
Remove (or scrap) all your geary reset your talent points and remove some spells from your action bars. You are now all set to start the gearing process again.
The only thing that won't be reset is your dungeon score.
Sure, it's a bit tedious to keep track yourself of the talent points and spells you are "earning", but it's totally doable.

I always had 2 alts in wow, both arms warriors.

I just recently did exactly this with a group of friends to simulate season reset and it was incredibly simple and easy
OP has it even easier because his friends he's referring to can quickly tell him exactly where they are in progression and he can perfectly match their talent/gem limits with no effort or thought required
This whole post is essentially "I want dev hours put into this feature because i'm daunted by the idea of doing it myself"
Not to say it's such an unreasonable request for them to implement eventually, it's just that the option to do it yourself with ease is already there if op truly desires it as much as he seems to

I think the problem is likely to fix itself as more heros are added

I think there will always be some people who just want to start over with the same hero several times, but they're a small minority, and I don't think they need to be addressed with any kind of priority.
The other aspect is that if they really implement it, would there be people who skip the next season reset because they already started over not too long ago?
And that would be even worse.

Well if we are gonna be those guys then why did eternal que get prio when only 5% of the players reached eternal? Then it shouldnt get adressed with high prio either. I think his idea makes sense and i’d love it, i was just talking to a friend about something similar and i think it would be more popular then you think. People tend to fall in love with some characters and just want more of the same.
Edit: about your last message; ”people who skip next season because they just reset”. Arent you explaining exactly how it is to just start playing another character in this game? The only difference is that i would get to play the character i enjoy the most again.

That metric is questionable because a large part of the active playerbase reached Eternal, and by the time that Eternal queue got released, most of the other 95% had quit and wouldn't have come back for minor improvements.
And I don't think the matter of burn-out is as severe for starting different heroes because... they're different. It's not doing the same thing over and over again.
I certainly wouldn't expect someone who started an alt shortly before a new season (and actually played that alt to some significant extent) to play that hero again after the season launches, unless they deliberately treat the previous progress as practice.
But they won't be burnt out regarding playing their main hero again, because that'll be a different experience from the alt they just played.

We are litteraly asking to be able to play the same hero and here you are telling me with pure assumptions that I am not gonna like it, like how the hell do you know that?
You are not speaking with facts but just simply assumptions made out of how you feel for a game, everyone plays games differently and like different things.
You cant tell me I wont like it and I will burn out, cause you have NO IDEA AT ALL. And just some changes to a season is enough to get me excited over a season again, people have been playing the same class for ages in wow with a number of different characters without burning out. Why would that be any different for fellowship? Are you saying the classes are so badly designed they are only fun to play once?
Not sure honestly where you are getting this "information" from.
Edit: You are just arguing for something that wont affect you at all, if you dont like playing the same hero over and over nobody is forcing you to do it. It would just be nice to have it as an option and you have no idea if its gonna take away time from them developing the things you want, cause it might be two completely different devs with different knowledge doing those things... Again you're just assuming.
normal galleon
It's a zero-sum game. More development for you means less development for me.
If they could do that on top of everything else, I wouldn't care, but it will take time, and I'd prefer that time be spent on something else.
limber glade
So what about the stuff you just made up then about burnout? where is the info for that? I am genuinely curious
normal galleon
That's usually how it works in seasonal games with an initial progression part. People who have done it recently don't want to go through it again.
limber glade
For you maybe... again assumptions
normal galleon
why do you think so many people ask about speeding up alt gearing?
limber glade
Gearing a toon vs playing the same toon are two different things
normal galleon
You still have to gear the same toon.
normal galleon
But the process will be different and not the same.
normal galleon
No, I believe the people who enjoy levelling the same character over and over again are an extreme minority.
limber glade
Tell that to wow players
normal galleon
Really, WoW players like levelling?
normal galleon
Is that why levelling is so much shorter than it used to be? Because people enjoy it so much?
normal galleon
not through the levelling process
or at least most people don't, especially not the ones who flock to what is basically meant to be pure endgame content as a game
limber glade
Nah but the leveling process doesnt go away with whatever toon you choose, its not like because you choose druid you wont have to level
normal galleon
But again, less repetition.
People are naturally averse to repeating the same tasks
limber glade
Some people like repetition, hey theres speedrunners doing the same mundane thing for years just to break one record
normal galleon
And how big of a percentage of the overall playerbase are those people?
limber glade
I cannot tell you that, because I dont know and I dont make assumptions of things I have no idea of
normal galleon
But honestly considering how enthusiastic you are, I can't understand the problem with just taking off your gear.
limber glade
Because its not the same thing, you have no goals to work towards except gearing... you are taking away all the small fun stuff along the way
