Screw that, just let my buy a respec whenever I want from the AUR store. I don't even care if you charged $20 US, it'd be the only thing that I buy from the store! I don't care about AUR suits, weapons, vehicles, modules, and I've only bought an omega booster for the million clone event! Game-breaking they call it, but how can it be any more game breaking than the weapons they screw with every update? Why did my favorite CR's suddenly suck in comparision to the assault rifles? I've replaced my Six Kin assault CR for a BLOODY DUVOLLE ASSAULT RIFLE on PC matches! |

2) WTF did you do with the 2-3 mil we got like 2 weeks ago?
2) Be careful what you ask for. The circle of life nerf will come back around and bite you in the ass. LR and MD are making a comeback, I'm glad I still have those weapons because the CR is bound to have some unfortunate accident happen to it sooner or later.
Yes, it only takes a month of continued playing to skill up a new weapon, but you know what? Maybe I'm impatient but I hate being stomped for a month before I get something up to decent levels. Like the shotgun, it can kill just about any suit i have in 2 or 3 shots no matter it's meta level.
That million clone challenge can easily be spent. The total cost of every skill in the game as of 1.7 was 279 million skill points (and some change). Personally, I spent it all on Dropsuit Engineering and Dropsuit Electronics since my corp & alliance were encouraging players to push for those skills to properly fit suits for PC matches.
Lastly, I agree that the CR should have been nerfed, and in all honesty I agree with the damage reduction (to a point) and the proficiency skill change. But when a gun that should be doing 1386 damage a clip (Six Kin 21 damage per bullet * 66 clip size) takes a full clip of accurate fire to kill about 400 shields then I call BS and wish for a respec opportunity. Not because the weapon has been nerfed, but because CCP has messed with the weapon mechanics in such a way that it becomes hard to use or unusable for my needs. It should not take 2-4 clips to take down a medium or a light (even with the full light buff in mind). That's 2772-5544 points of damage needed to kill other suits! |

After all, why do we gain SP? We learn from our mistakes, passively, and actively ))
The way I see it, I agree with you, BUT the big problem lies with CCP's ability to mess around with the programming just enough that for every update they screw up one or more of their weapons. And once again it appears to be problems only for certain clients. Some people are finding favored weapons to be next to useless (for me its the assault CRs needing 2 clips to take out 500 shields, or the assault forge guns misfiring 4 out of every 5 shots) and want the ability to get out of a broken weapon field. For me though, if CCP decides to do a weapon respec I want them to ONLY do it after getting full racial weapons across the board.
This means a mid-range rifle, maybe a short range rifle, a long range rifle, a smg, a pistol, nova knives, AV shoulder mounted weapons, heavy short range, heavy long range, and heavy explosives. And I don't think that explosives are ANY race's. I DO NOT think that the Flaylock pistol is Minmatar nor do I think the Mass driver is either. Lore wise, or Eve wise, the explosives have been considered Caldari weapons, but if CCP chooses to make Rails their chosen weapon, then Explosives has to become a shared weapon type. Every race can use them and every race should get a suit with bonuses to them (Don't all have to be the same type of suit though).
Sincerely,
Your Multi-purpose Everything User
