Please allow dual spec or cap respec costs.

Its not even about it being hard its about it being *********** annoying. Let me sit and and respec for 5 mins then change all my bars around for another 10 mins then let me lose x amount of credits for having to repecs to fill a role we dont have. Its about conveinance and efficiency. When you can change spec and all your bars change with one button you are off and playing and having fun instead of sitting at the fleet dicking around with your bars, spec, etc. Wow did it for conveinance to the user instead of making the process TEDIOUS. Its about tedium its not about it being hard.

And your argument is, WoW have it SWTOR should not have it?

Now you are changing your story.

What you describe now is just making it easier/more efficient to RESPEC.
Creating a Dualspec feature would mean u can switch willy-nilly from one spec to another without consequences or cost.
That's just silly.

I'm all for fantasy, fiction and flexibilty... but draw a line somewhere and dont cross it.
Hell, i dont even think the Lore of SW allows it....
"Look, i'm a sith sorcerer... OH and now i'm a sith warrior...away with you double bladed lightsaber.. where are my dual wielding lightsabers!!!!" ...

Come to think of it.... i might be willign to concede to a dualspec in your CURRENT CLASS....
As a Sith Jugg, you have 3 different talent trees..
I am willing to concede that you should be able to "dualspec" without costs through those 3 talenttrees.
That way, a Jugg can be DPS or Tank...
Its another think however to let a Sith Jugg Dualspecc a Sith Sorc... that would just break the game to much and make all the classes meaningless imho.

but I still play my DPS characters more because guess what, I'm in a group a LOT less than when I'm playing alone.

I think you missed the point of this topic like 13 pages ago ... Dual spec is purely about changing your talent trees not classes or advance classes ...

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

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.

The people who complain about dual spec are the EXACT same people who piss and moan there aren't enough healers and tanks. Hypocrites.
