factions campaign question

just started playing again after couple month

started a new char and just acsended

is there a shortcut to finishing factions for hard mode or do I have to go thru all the missions again

If you have another character that has completed the campaign, hardmode will be unlocked once your new character hits level 20.

You have to go through them all again. There is no way around the gates that restrict your access into later missions without doing the required quests.

^^ Sierraa is right about HM and being level 20 so long as another character has gone though the campaign at least once.

You need to be lvl 20 in order to have the HM feauture.
saying its a new char,if u havent finished factions before, yes, u do have to play it all truh again.
Otherwise, grind a few quests or go to Eye of the north for some Kilroy Boxing

Hope this helps you.

HM = after you finished the stories

It is kinda like end game but you actually redo the whole game, only with higher lever foes.
