A full respec for everything not vehicle not too improbable..., in fact, it's preferred BC the changes to drop suits affect equipment, modules, and weapons. A full respec is out of the question, we just got a vehicle respec last update and nothing dramatic is changing there. An infantry respec is all but certain. What you skill into for dropsuit upgrades directly depends on what you do for dropsuit command. If you put a lot of points into armor modules because the Amarr sentinel has all those low slots, good luck trying to make use out of that if you are moving to Caldari Sentinel. Or if they take away the scout's sidearm, good luck making use of that fully maxed out SMG/scrambler pistol or whatever. Even Commandos, now you have to use specific weaponry to take advantage of the racial bonus. Dropsuit Command, Dropsuit Upgrades, and Weaponry will all be refunded. There's no other way about it.

This is said every time we get something new or something is changed. And it happens. No it does not Viktor is correct, Dust's player base has been stable for quite a few months now.

They are going through an absolutely massive tiericide programme on Eve, with dozens of ships changing quite dramatically, and haven't given any refunds there. Don't get your hopes up. "Changing" is a very broad term. Changing by tiericide and bringing everything closer together wouldn't warrant a respec because those ships still perform the same role, even if not as good. But what is happening in Dust is different, as they are changing the actual function of the suits. If say Minmatar Logistics was getting it's bonus changed from 5% hacking speed per level to 2% hacking speed per level, that wouldn't require a respec as it would still be a hacking logi and function the same way. The Minmatar Logistics getting it's bonus changed from 5% hacking speed per level to 5% repair tool repair rate and range per level however is completely changing the function and what it is used for on the battlefield. That is just an example, but the same can be said for just about every suit in Dust with these changes. ARC Commander CPM Info and Q&A - Status: Open

I'll miss my minlogi, but to hell with being reduced to a Walking Fatty Active Module. Proto Min logi gets 4 equipment, and a bonus to all of them (fitting reduction). You could also provide your team spawn points or ammo, revive them, scan for them, and all that good stuff. Heck, the Minmatar logi racial bonus includes a range buff to repair tools as well, and there are already some really long range repair tools. You could heal multiple targets from quite a far distance, and not just heavies. There's a lot more to a logi then just Sentinel support (which is beneficial support, as the Sentinel protects the logi). But yes, the logi is a selfless role dedicated to supporting its teammates. If you're skilling into it for any other reason then you'll probably end up disappointed, but if you are skilling into it for that reason you never will be disappointed because any potential future logi changes will be to make it better at supporting teammates.
