What benefits do I get from replaying missions?

Question

Spiral Knights recently added missions, an award system tied to the missions you complete, and an arbitrary "prestige" value that certain missions award you that may or may not (i.e. some does, some doesn't) bring you one step closer to leveling up.

What can I gain from replaying a mission I've already completed? Can I get the mission rewards and the prestige again? Just the prestige? Does it count toward leveling up?

Asked by John the Green

Answer

You do not get the mission rewards and prestige from replayed missions, however you do get the money and items you found within the missions. Thus, replaying missions may not be a way to profit from selling the rewards, but it makes farming Materials, Tokens and Crowns much easier by simply being able to make a pure Snarbolax or Jelly King run for example.

Arcanum replay value

Question

I finally got around to beating Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura, and I'm curious if I will enjoy a replay.

So my question is, what can change from playthrough to playthrough, other than different combat due to a different character build and different party members?

Answer

I'd say absolutely. Play it as a magic user, then play it as a technologist. You can also do elf/dwarf/human but in those cases the differences are more cosmetic. It's also fun to try out different specializations: the masters for the highest levels all have different quests.

There are also tons of side quests. It's unlikely that you saw them all in a single playthrough. Different party members? Lots of stuff.
