Why not make campagin progress based on account not character?

The title says it, what is the fun to do the same compaign content again and again for your new characters? Why can't we have the boons unlocked for account which means you only need to unlock them once and have it on all your characters. I really wish dev could consider the possibility to change this otherwise very few would want to progress their 2nd or 3rd character.

A lot of people are missing out on valuable gameplay from alts because a lot of them dread doing dailies over and over again

I think making the Sharandar and Tyranny of Dragons (in the future) package account-wide makes it more appealing to some players similar to how account-wide mounts are popular with people.
Then Mod4 came arround and having multiple alts was IMPOSSIBLE due to the long waiting times with the dragon timers etc. Well not impossible, but leaves you with no time to play the actuall game because of the dailys.
So i am confuzed to wether they want us to have alts or no. But imo all campaigns should be @ account now because there are so many of them, and more incoming
That way they still get play out of the content, and the grind gets cut in half (except for ToD).
That would be a compromise I could live with, though obviously account wide boon unlocks would be way better.
then how would they get money from players wanting NOT to play their content ?
if ppl are willing to pay not to play the content then something is wrong

Well, even having all the currencies you need, there'd still be the various time limitations you'd have to deal with - like unlocking each area in Sharandar or the reputation system in IWD.

By selling campaign completions, of course.
I would really like havin campaigns automatically unlock for every character or at least shared campaign-currencys.
Doing those dailys as a full tank specced GF is incredible annoying. Not fun, just annoying.
Sharandar Campaign Completion - 5000 Z or 50$
Dread Ring Campaign Completion - 5000 Z or 50$
I expect that there will be similar for IWD soonish.
Why not have those account-wide?
Probaly because they think they would then sell less of them. Thats probaly not true since it would incerase the worth of those sold unlocks by A LOT and A LOT more people would consider buying it, if it was account-wide.

I like this. Some other currencies / tokens are shareable between characters. Astral diamonds practically are. And you'd have to spend the same amount of time grinding... but you could grind Sharandar on your GWF, and give the boons to your GF.
Account-wide boon unlocks... don't fit this game. Campaigns are half the end-game content available, so having to play through each only once would make you run out of content faster. Of course, you could re-engineer the whole thing, and give each player some account-wide dailies, one for each campaign.
i would like acc wide campaign currency once you have unlocked campaign on any character so you can catch up with your alts faster
If it's just charandar that's the problem why not just reduce the spark requirements. Something they kind of should have done a while ago.

I don't see it breaking the roleplaying aspect at all. Similar to unlocking class artifacts, you are simply gaining some benefit from having a "friend" or "family member" (whatever you want to call your alts) assist you.
Perhaps instead of making it so that the alts don't have to do the campaigns, I think it would be better if the requirements were reduced the more times you have run it.
Say the first time through per account it is 100% requirements, next time its 75%, next time its 50%....numbers strictly pulled from the nethers but the idea is it gets easier.
However, as people above has said, running the same content repeatedly seems to be the status quo for this game in order to avoid making new content, so good luck seeing anything get easier without having to pay.
Nor does killing the same bleeping dragon every bleeping day, but who's counting?
Roleplaying perspective in a game that gives a **** about roleplaying?
Can i remember you that we are killing dozens of dragons, demons and whatnot per day while riding around on our drakes, shadowwolves and stuff like that while our pet-angel keeps following us like a dog? How is that roleplaying? Not even the worst D&D-P&P-Sessions would kill "roleplaying" as much as Neverwinter does.
