Hi,
Would it be possible to add a seasonal character rebirth button, a bit like in D3, please ? The idea would be to be able to use a Legacy character as a fresh seasonal character (lvl 1, obviously), leaving all the gear in Legacy.
I do like the idea of replaying the same characters from season to season, but I have to do it manually : leaving all my gear in stash, deleting the character in Legacy, recreating the character in Season.
So a QoL would be nice. Thanks

Iâm not really sure I understand your point.
What do you mean by ârecreatingâ the character - a fresh level 1 Primalist without any gear for instance is the same exact character, no matter how you create it. Only difference is character name?
No : a rebirthed character would be the exact same character with the exact same name (since you canât have two different characters with the exact same name in LE). With this QoL, a leveled Legacy character would become a fresh level 1 Seasonal character.
The only problem with this is where the game would dump the equipped gear. Thereâs no guarantee that you even have free space in the stash, so youâd risk losing gear.
This is something which you can already do manually, by logging in to legacy before season start, dumping your gear in your stash, deleting it and when the season starts make a new char with the same name.
Unlike in PoE, names are account based, so you have no fear of someone stealing your name.
Youâre basically asking for a button that will save you 2 minutes every 4 months with the possibility of something going wrong and you losing your gear (or the game preventing it and you having to do it manually anyway).
It seems like too much effort for too little gain.
Yeah, I know
thatâs why itâs all about a QoL, and not a full feature. Yet it existed in D3, and I found it quite nice and practical : I used this option every season.
As for the issue of risking loosing gear you raise, I believe that there are ways to circumvent it.
For instance, in D3, all the equipment the character had in a previous season would be made available through a retreiving system : an icon would be made available on any other legacy character during a month or two (canât remember the exact length, but it was timed).
But in the case of LE, the retrieving system already exists through the retrieve-only seasonal stash tabs in Legacy. So, by capitalising on this system, I donât think it would be that difficult and hard work to implement a character rebirth option. For example, it could work by creating a specific retrieve-only tab per character where previous seasonâs gear would be dumped in (a tab should be sufficient to contain all gear and idols the character had equipped).
