Are we getting a /respec with LU #7?

Asked a few times and still no response :smileysad:

Since most fighters chose defense traits and defense will now be capped we should have the option to /respec correct? I'm assuming you are already planning this due to the nature of the patch but I would just like to hear it straight from the horses mouth so I dont blow a gasket thinking about it. :smileytongue:

I really hope so.

It's my opinion that they added the /respec command in the first place so they would be able to offer it again with less of a hassle. I don't see how they can continue to change trait choices and their effects without offering us an opportunity to /respec.

/agree

They also need to change parry based buffs, I have a few parry skill buffs as a 39SK, I would like to see them changed to something else when this goes live.

If they keep changing the core system, they will end up giving us a huge respec by doing a server reset. The classes are turning complete 180's now a days from what we chose to play in the beginning.

it ought to be a static command with a re-use timer. its pretty *$%#&!ing stupid that its not. put it on a 30 day re-use if you want. re-work the UI of new choices and then make it so you can only make one adjustment to your entire selection per 10 days, etc. its a changing world and people need to be able to change with it.

Sorry, I cannot agree that people should be allowed to do it every month. That is a pretty ridiculous request considering these really are intended to be permanent changes to your character. Obviously we deserve a /respec when they drastically change the system, as they've done a few times since launch, but I don't think their goal is to continually revamp the base game. Once they have most of it where they like it, /respecs will not be nearly as necessary.

YanariiFV · 04-14-2005, 05:41 PM

How about a few sub /respec's ?

/retrain to only change the training spells they keep changing/nerfing or leave unfixed...

/retrait for when they make changes to the combat system as they did now

/...

I think we're going to need a respec.

I thought those traits raised the cap itself, not just the value you had at the time. If it didn't raise the cap, why would you waist a choice on defense or parry when they would rise on their own anyway?

You thought wrong, there is no cap at all on defense at the moment, so maxing defense was the absolute best choice you could make as a tank. Now with agility being the determining factor for dmg bonuses I'm sure a lot would like to respec some agility traits or other helpful skills and let def be capped by buffs alone instead of innate traits capping it and buffs being worthless.
