HOWEVER, sometimes people make mistakes. Sometimes, CCP nerfs weapons/gear/suits/etc and it changes the value/functionality of what you have spec'ed into. Because of this, I think people should be able to respec if they need to, but it should be at a cost. This way, we don't have everybody just respeccing all the time.
I'd suggest, CCP offer the mechanic to allow people to respec, but it should cost available/unspent SP. Perhaps 100,000 SP? Enough where it won't break you if you do it once or twice in your Dust career, but it will sting if you do it often. It will sting you not a bit if you have enough SP to proto whatever you want to do and don't intend to respec more then once a week. |

Luckily there is also no skill cap either. So over time you can be well geared in all roles.
However at the cheap cheap investment of 8 million skill points you should be able to be able to use base gear of everything and have max fitting and HP values to work with and being able to play the 'bare minimum' of ALL the roles. Why would I spread myself thin on a main account, while being a major part of our corps PC? Makes no sense.... Also with no ability to test/try things out without major investment is just plain awful game design You don't seem to understand the concept of tradeoffs.
You can be an average generalist or a strong specialist. Not both. |

You don't seem to understand the concept of tradeoffs. You can be an average generalist or a strong specialist. Not both. This doesn't just effect me but you as well, you think new players are going to want to be stuck with a role they choose at the get go without being able to try other things that may suit them better? When you launch into your game and see no one on the other side, maybe then you will realize. This does affect me especially since i'm sitting on a mere 2.2m and i have to constantly balance between further specilization and getting some more options.
I have no clue what your last sentence is supposed to mean, so i just leave it at that. |

So you are speaking for the new players by telling us how they feel about the skill system and then reject my reply because i am a new player. Or is it perhaps because i disagree with you? |
