Overview[edit]

Dungeons and Dragons Online supports the ability to take a character and reincarnate. There are four types of reincarnation:

Heroic Reincarnation - With this type you take a character that is at least level 20 back to level 1, allowing you to respec it into the same or different type of character, and gaining feats based on the dominate class.
Racial Reincarnation - Similar to Heroic Reincarnation, you take a character that is at least level 20 back to level 1, allowing you to respec it into the same or different type of character, and gaining feats, based on the race.
Iconic Reincarnation - With this type you take a character that is an iconic race, once you have reached level 30, back to level 1, allowing you to respec it into the same or different type of character.
Epic Reincarnation - With this type you take any character, once you have reached level 30, back to level 20, allowing you to change it, as if you did a Lesser Reincarnation, but gain a Epic Past Life feat, based on the iconic race.
Lesser Reincarnation - With this type you can take your character back to level 1, at any time, with enough XP to get back to where you were. You can then change everything except alignment, race, and gender. Some limitations in the class selection are enforced.

During the Heroic Reincarnation process, gives your character access to two new feats. One of these feats is passive, and you get for free, meaning it is automatically granted at level 1, and there is no action you have to take to use it. The other is a feat you have to purchase with using a standard feat slot.

Subsequent reincarnations allow you to keep your previous past life feats, and will add more. Each class can have each of these feats stacked up to 3 times, accumulating the benefit. So, if you had 3 Artificer past lives, you would take the benefit and multiply it by 3. Beyond the third time there is no accumulated benefit.

Once you have a single past life in each of the classes that exist at the time, you will automatically be granted the feat Completionist.

Dominant Class[edit]

When a character does a reincarnation, the class that is used to determine which heroic past life feat that character will received is determined through the following steps:

If there is a tie for the most levels (Rogue 10/Ranger 10), the determination is made using the following list, the class that is higher on the list is used
If there is one class that has the most levels - use that class (Rogue 2/Fighter 18 uses Fighter)

Barbarian
Bard
Bard - Stormsinger
Cleric
Cleric - Dark Apostate
Fighter
Fighter - Dragon Lord
Paladin
Paladin - Sacred Fist
Ranger
Ranger - Dark Hunter
Rogue
Sorcerer
Sorcerer - Wild Mage
Wizard
Monk
Favored Soul
Artificer
Druid
Druid - Blight Caster
Warlock
Warlock - Acolyte of the Skin
Alchemist
