It is like exemplaring. You are the lvl of the Story Arc.
"All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us...they can't get away this time"- Chesty Puller US Marine Corps
You exemplar to the max level of the arc.
Paragonwiki with Heroes' arcs listed
You can pop around the links to get to the villains and RWZ arcs there too.
total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

First off, I'm not 50 yet and I'm not anywhere close to needing to go back and do old arcs. So this is just out of curiousity from reading other forum posts...
When you go back and do old arcs, do you get to go at full power? Or is it like exemplaring? Do you get the arc level influ or level 50? Just curious.
I know so little about it, my questions might not even make sense. >.<

Arcs are arranged by level ranges, i.e. 10-14, 25-29, 30-34, etc.
When you go back, you are exemped to the highest level in that range, and your powers/slots are limited to what you had at that level.
As to rewards, I am not sure on that as I haven't done enough flashback arcs to notice.
Very helpful, thanks!
Keep an eye on your challenge rating.. I went back on a hero to get the isolator badge and forgot to set my rating back to 1.. Yeah, 2 powers against hordes of infected was NOT fun

Just your powers are limited, all slots in them work normally, just like regular exemping. Rewards are for your regular level, except generic recipe and salvage drops are for the level you have exemped down to.

You don't have to wait until 50 to go back and do an arc you enjoyed or a bit of story you think might be important. Just have fun with it and in this game there is no requirement to rush to the level cap.
Welcome to the Game.
