No idea but I will tell you this much it will not be free most likely will cost 1000-5000 aur. So just hold on its coming ccp needs to make money and this is a great way just wait a bit longer.
that won't ever happen. if they change a skill tree, they will refund the sp you've already spent in a non-existent tree for you to re-spend. they won't ever let you 'respec' for aur, or for any other reason.
I'm hoping - not expecting, but hoping - they also let us respec into new racial suit variants when they introduce a Gallente Assault equivalent, and a Caldari Small Frame, and the various other racial Dropsuit designs.
they've already protected themselves against this, as is obvious in the suit tree as it is.
I know a few Caldari who have skilled into Gallente Scouts simply because it's the only option that fills our preferred role. I know a few people who want to skill into Scout suits, but because the only suit of that size is Gallente, they've avoided it. I know people who have skilled into Logis instead of Assaults even though they're not the preferred suit just because it's the only medium suit they can use without funding the Caldari State.
not wearing a suit because it's gallente doesn't make much sense within the eve universe.
I know a lot of FPS players don't think this way, but some do, and giving those of us who are working on "best fit" options for now a chance to do what we REALLY wanted with our SP would be nice.
they don't want it to be easy to play this game, if they did they would have made cod 16 or whatever
Having said that, though, I hope if they DO offer this kind of respec, it ONLY lets you respec into an equivalent weapon. The current Gallente AR skill could be trade (for example) for equal amount of SP into Gauss Rifle or Scramber Rifle operation, but not Shotgun or Forge Gun or SMG skills. If you've got level 5 Gallente Scout skill, then you can trade it for level 5 Caldari [insert small frame name] skill, but you can't respec into a Heavy suit because that would violate the intent for your decisions to have consequences.
