New Mish+

[Galaxy Brain]

Expanding further on an idea found here: 

 
An idea for "Advanced" content was being able to re-run completed mission arcs with your characters under different settings. Much like the "New Game+" of other games, you could for example run the Frostfire Arc at lvl 50 with incarnate powers vs similarly boosted lvl 50+ Outcasts for a challenge-run. This could come with new badges, Merit / Etc rewards for running the New Mish+ content with other Oroboros settings, and so on. This could even be applied to Task Forces.

 

Thoughts?

I think something implicit in work like this is the current contact levels. What you're asking for sounds like what Ouroboros was supposed to do, when they introduced the self-imposed challenges. The obvious difference: those bring you to the quest's levels, and you want them to come up to yours.

 

I cannot shake the feeling this was done because the alternative was actually adding logic and option paths to literally every supported story arc.

 

But yeah, definitely, wouldn't turn it down. I still think most contacts need at least 5 levels added to their availability range for their normal modes, so maybe that could be done (along with some other old content refinements...) while adding NG+ versions of the arcs.

 

EDIT: what about street-sweeping portions? If each mission needs to be an adjusted copypasta of the original, these could just auto-succeed, but if implementation is more system-level, these would still be a thing, and there would be a surge of incarnates murdering all of King's Row (and fighting over the 3-4 decent Lost spawns).
