Skill point progression: Based on your feedback we will be doing further adjustments to skill point requirements for specializations, which received a massive rework in Uprising along with the new node based visualization of the tech tree. Our plan is to address this by tweaking skill point requirements GÇô and in that process reimburse you with the skill points that youGÇÖve spent back to your unused skill pool. Additionally, we are planning an optional skill point respec of skill points to players via petitioning our game masters after this change occurs, in case some of you may not be completely satisfied with your original choices. We also believe that this will solve some dropsuit requirements that were changed in Uprising, giving you easier access to those items again. Details about changes to the skill point progress will be forthcoming when available, and weGÇÖll provide an updated spreadsheet in advance of that (the previous one provided) here.

Completely agree Grodd. As a 6 million SP Dropship pilot with extremely low pg/cpu (since the skills aren't working), I would love a skill reset, even if it was an optional one just for the players who wanted it.


TL;DR: Optional Skill Reset for those who want it, followed by an Aurum purchasable item in the Marketplace to accommodate any future mistakes made by CCP and/or it's players.

i too want to respec. because tanks 514 is going to start and i need to gain all my skill points to be a tank pilot as well.

Back to the top

So lets see a lot of you went and made impulsive choices without doing your reading and research as to what those choices would get you and now your crying for CCP to fix your mistakes? Look skills where bugged its true. It also was not hidden. Clear inspection between the skills and modules showed the discrepancy clearly . If you then choose to spec into Dropsuits instead of waiting for CCP to fix it . People that is stupidity worthy of a golf clap. And just plane short sighted.

Vehicles are getting buffed so "LOL now respec time for me?! ?" or just spec into av and don't suck at at? What do you guys not understand about the concept of choices and consequences. Meaningful specialization. That is so central and has been to Dust and the CCP development philosophy stated numerous times.

You made choices. You screwed up. Deal with your results.

A little personal responsibility would probably go a long way for a few of you to give you some pause the next time you decide to bull rush in.And for those that simply where impatient. Tough **** read the above.

Why so many of you think your entitled to demand CCP fix your mistake is beyond me. Its shameful and stupid behavior. If you screwed up and your unhappy you should be you should feel bad it was dumb. If CCP gives you the re-spec at least try to learn from your past experience. In my opinion its more then some of you deserve.

Which combination of modules and skills was it possible for me to look at to find out that Vehicle Engineering gives a reduction in CPU cost to PG modules instead of the PG increase that was described on the skill? And where would I find the information about Militia modules not getting this benefit either?

Which combination of modules and skills should I have looked at to find out that Militia Shield Extenders don't get the CPU reduction from Shield Extension?

Note in my statement I was not referencing vehicle skills not applying the right bonus to a given mod but rather the Mods showing the right skill requirements ( though the effect was broken) And then people going and investing the the dropsuits skills instead as a stop gap rather then waiting for a fix. And this was indeed as i said clearly visible. At no point was I referencing modules not getting a bonus. Hope that clears that up for you.

Now here we are with people demanding that poor choice be fixed and SP refunded. Now the skills where not working but the requirements from what I examined where right on most of them certainly enough for context, the skills where just not functioning. If your reference to " skills we may never use" was in regard to the dropsuit skills.. I direct you to my previous post.

Should CCP refund? Imo no. But again if they do. Learn something from the mistake made prior and be thankful CCP fixed it for you. The community IS entitled to many things as we are the consumer. But we are not entitled to foolish choices with no consequences.

Wow some people really can't read.

I'll just repost and reiterate my last comment; /Thread

All you're saying is that nobody should get a respec, and that we should have looked at the modules and skills to see the problems. Some of the problems which caused people to spend SP incorrectly were problems that WEREN'T obvious by following your advice.


So this means that you not only can't spell "were", but also think that people with LEGITIMATE expenditure of SP on skills that were incorrectly described shouldn't get our SP respec because there are other people who don't deserve one?


I'll take this as confirmation of my previous question.

I don't agree. I can work around the problems, but it would make more sense to get the SP back when it wasn't invested into what I was told I was buying.

I would point out Garret less then half that post was directed at you, please read carefully. Most was directed at English tryn reading it as such. And yes I made a typo clearly this is an indictment of my ability in regards to spelling. ( note the sarcasm just in case you missed it) Honestly, it seems like your going out of your way to misinterpret things or your just not paying attention.

If those things don't apply to you then don't take offense to them. If they do grow a pair and try moving on from sad and petty attempts at instigating anger in others rather then forming a good counter point it will serve you better.
