Replayed on a character that has already completed the episode at least once before?

I already played that achievement on another character. This is my new character. I jumped right on Point of no return without completing the other stories. Does it cause the problem ?

You have to play through the story section on a character to be able to do the achievements for that particular story section. There are a few achievements that will let you bypass this, but the vast majority require an initial play-through of the story.

Like Rose said, with the Living Story Season 2 achievements you have to play through that certain section of the story (the 3+ instances that make up a chapter) completely on that particular character then go back and play the missions a second time using that same character to qualify for the achievements.

Thankfully, in Heart of Thorns they eased up on that restriction and made it account-bound, so you can play it on one character and then get achievements on any other character (or the same one) after that. And hopefully that’ll apply to future Living Story installments as well.

But for LS2, at least unless they change it in a patch, you have to “double-dip” with the same character to qualify for the achieves.

The line “I already played that achievement on another character” indicates another potential issue: If you’ve done the achieve already, on any alt, you’ve done it. They are account wide.
