Energy tiles.

Just a suggestion. I feel as if the entire community would like if when doing any mission,whether it's A4,5 or monthly event quests. Kind of like AQ/AW if you go down a path that someone has already went on it does not cost energy. Ok when you are exploring quests then shouldn't your energy NOT be taken away until you are on the path you have not been on yet?

Hmm, have you ever considered that maybe a lot of people would just start rerunning quests to farm items like potions, revives and energy refills? Definitely not a good idea unless they would go about changing the way you are awarded items.

Then maybe they should change it to where you can only get items on paths that have not been explored yet

Yeah, I dislike that idea. Farming items from completed quests (even ISO at times) is far more beneficial than any tradeoff for what you mention. Better go back to the drawing board. You are 0 for 2 today!

Kabam will not do it for the reason that @420sam describes. It would definitely be exploited.

I agree with 420Sam, but don't disagree with the OP.

To follow the OP's request, quests would have to be setup so that once a path is done, it's done. No fights, no chests, no items, no energy costs. You've been there already, why should you get anything for going through it again? However, the rewards for the first pass would have to be increased to compensate for the lost resources from duplicating paths. For example, you always get gold/xp per node, regardless of how many times you've been there, so a 100% completed map has a minimum amount of total gold/xp rewarded. The revamped rewards would have to be at least this level.

But then, there are several players who deliberately re-run quests just to farm the resources from doing it. Some people have beaten ROL Winter Soldier hundreds of times just for the heath pots.

I wouldn't mind seeing a combined version of the two options: basically, set it up for "farming". One set of rewards for the first time reaching a node and beating a fight, but then a second set of rewards for subsequent visits. Additionally, reaching a node you've already explored would have a reduced energy cost. Quests would then have "Completion" rewards for the first pass, "Exploration" rewards for 100% exploration, and then a third "Rerun" category.

This hybrid would be better suited for the "challenge" quests like the Michael B Jordan event since you only get rewards for the first pass right now. Allow players to run it multiple times for additional resources at a reduced energy cost.
