I would like that.

Roll an alt, cp is account wide, enjoy doin the same content over again.

The Secret World does this and it actually works really really well.
They have implemented various cool-downs on them so they can't be 'farmed'.

This is an excellent idea and is something I've thought about myself.

There is no downside to it at all because if there's nothing to gain from doing it again (skill points etc) then nobody will feel forced into having to do it again.

At the moment if I wanted to play the quests again I would have to remake a character but there's only so many types of character I'd enjoy playing, so I would basically end up with duplicate toons only to be able to play the same quests again.

If it keeps people happy and keeps people playing then I don't see a down side. If you don't want to make use of it then you don't have to use it and therefore it won't affect your game at all.

Maybe make it a switch for each zone, so you can reset each areas quests, redoing the quests would only give EXP points.

I really don't understand why people have voted against it, especially without even giving a reason why.

Absolutely, I believe I said as much in a previous post as well.

While I could just roll a new toon and play again... I've spent hundreds of hours gathering resources and skill points and leveling skill lines and generally turning my character into a badass. I would like to play the content again without needing to worry about leveling any of my gear or gathering skyshards, or basically getting distracted by anything other than just wandering around the world doing basic quests to pass the time.

I saw mention of a cooldown on the reset to prevent abuse of the system for farming, and I agree with that.

Replayability

Resettable race, appearance, name, faction, class lol whats the point in even having more than 2 or 3 character slots?

No. Reroll if you dont like your alliance.

It's not like they are force-feeding you that stuff, and OP didn't say that he wanted to reset a zone to switch it for another one, but he wanted to reset it to replay the quests, which is an entirely different thing.

If I want to be a tank and use a Dunmer, but I prefer using an Argonian for it, who am I hurting?
If I want to change the appearance of my char, why shouldn't I? You have changed your looks in time by switching armor, why can't I change hairstyle?
If I want to change my char's name, why shouldn't I? Account names are to avoid confusion, char's names are for immersion purposes. Let's say I'm an RP-er and some events have led to my char being hunted. At the same time, I'd like to change my char's name. Why shouldn't I do it? How am I hurting you or the game?
You can't even change faction nor class, so there's nothing to say on it.

If you don't like that stuff, you don't do it, simple. I don't use Change tokens because I don't like to, but if someone wants to change something of his toon why shouldn't he? I probably would never reset a quest zone but why other people that want to replay those regions shouldn't?

99% of quests can be completed with help from people who dont have the quest.

Is there anyway to give ZOS the idea? Do they have some kind of intake page?

Naah just don't phase ppl out if they group. Leader determines phase 4 all and quest progress.

I can see no downside to this.
Great idea.
