Normally, I would vote against respecs, but the way game mechanics have been changing on a whim and all the bugs with certain mechanics we to stop people from getting duped with things not working as intended. Look at the engineering skill for vehicles, that horrible iron sight on lasers, and mass drivers to get a good idea of what I'm talking about. Just for speccing to those 3 things you should be entitled for a respec until they're finally fixed and rebalanced. |

For anyone arguing that players should live with the consequences of their actions, players investing their time/SP/ISK/AUR into specializing have only been getting rewarded with nerfs because of terrible balancing. It's like playing a game of Rock Paper Scissors where the the scissors wind up getting dulled because they can cut rock too and rock needs to be chipped away because it crushes scissors too hard and paper needs a buff because its too small to cover rock. |

Again. Your motivation is perfectly understandable and i feel your pain but respecs are just masking the underlying issue and on top of that damage the SP system to the point of becoming obsolete. You want to break something that i and many other players value highly to unbreak what you value highly. The difference is that your broken toy can (and should) be fixed by adressing it's actual issue (better balancing and communication thereof). Mine will be broken beyond repair.
Don't get me wrong, I don't want this to happen but at the same time until they can figure out how to properly balance this game players shouldn't be forced to pay for their mistakes. This would only be a temporary solution until things are set right and would be easier than having to hand out optional respecs. Once everything is properly balanced and functional we can go back to the canonical rules of New Eden, but right now the 4th wall has long since broken. |

All respecs do is allow people to play the FOTM, and take advantage of nerfs.
If people would just play what they enjoyed, instead of what's OP, nobody would be crying for a respec.
FOTM actually does a service because it shows how exploitable game mechanics are so effective counters or (reasonable) nerfs can be applied. I'd rather the TAR situation have happened now than to happen when connection with EVE actually mattered. |
