Having a single spec might work if you only do PvE, but if you do various things in game, PvP, PvE, whatever, and on a regular basis, it's a hellish money sink to respec at the moment, especially when there is such a variation on content.

I can guarantee that pretty much every single person against duel speccing either A.) doesn't raid, B.) doesn't PvP AND PvE, or C.) is a DPS. The "role"/RP reasoning behind this is moot, as no one is talking about AC changing and resetting your talents is already something that has existed since day one. And I still find the idea of someone leveling a Powertech as Shield and another Powertech as Prototype being a viable solution to having a DPS and tank to be preposterous (let alone if you want a third for PvP). Duel spec or a lower cap for respec should be a must.

Respec trainers break my roleplayign experience and I think they should be removed. I mean why can my character just forget about his healing skills and take more PEW PEW skills. It just doesnt make sense. My boyfriend told me its because wookies come from Endor can someone confirm this ?

A group of people with specific specs will roll people will hybrid specs over like nothing. Dual spec will make the problem worse, because BW won't have to balance hybrid specs, since they won't even exist. Hybrid specs should be viable, and dual specs make them completely obsolete, since you can do something in one fight and another thing in the next, this removing a hybrid spec's usability. As such, such specs don't even get looked at by developers, because only a very very small percentage of people use them. As such, they go out of use due to them being non-viable. I'd rather see BW keep hybrid specs viable and competitive than introducing dual-spec.

Just because we did something in the past doesn't make it better. But that is your argument! Your argument is that past games (WoW, etc) have dual spec so SWTOR should have it. /facepalm PS: Read the post I was responding to. Where it was said the game will fail without respec. Context is your friend.

They *****ed about it, which is rightfully so, so then they implemented it and ALOT of people were estactic about it. I being one of them.

I'd rather see BW keep hybrid specs viable and competitive than introducing dual-spec. I dont know about other classes but I look at the Sage healer tree and there might as well not even be a healer talent tree. I think I have 3 points or so to play with after I take the obvious healing talents. I can only assume its the same for tanks (and I know it kinda is for sents / marauders with the trees buffing a specific stance). So I fail to see this "hybrid" builds you talk about, I do however see the potential for "gimp" builds that little timmy makes cos the talents look cool but share little synergy

I'm very happy with this game and think there is FAR too much complaining... that being said, I'm disappointed that dual specs weren't introduced at launch and this will be one of the biggest factors in continuing my subscription.
