Please allow dual spec or cap respec costs.

Medals and objectives aren't always an indication of value either. As a Tank assassin I've carried quite a few teams in every WZ and I'm regularly near the bottom, go figure.

So you're not going to answer the question? How exactly will you be impacted by this change, would you cancel?

After just dual-spec, no I won't cancel but Bioware will no longer hold a high place in the gaming industry for me.

I will also shoot you the same question, what will you do if Bioware doesn't allow you to do somthing simply because you are lazy?

The antonym of lazy is hard-working. Why do you want to work in a video game? It should be fun not work.

You have to have huge balls to call someone lazy while you sit on the forums playing a video game.

How is the convenience of repeccing quickly and easily lazy exactly?

So are all Rift players lazy cause they all have 5 specs?

So the only non-lazy gamers in your esteemed opinion are gamers who play mmo's with no respeccing?

It sounds like you would like Darkfall or Mortal online then.

Most of us play games to have fun and relax, not do chores and work. I have a house to clean for that.

Why do people think calculators were a good idea, or cars? Because they're too lazy to do it themselves, or because it makes life easier?

Bringing up laziness is a non-argument

I've already stated that not having dual specs is one of the biggest things that would cause this otherwise happy player to leave. You can call it laziness if that somehow increases your own self value... I think you'll notice that most people wanting this feature are people that are far more progressed than those that aren't, and I don't think it's due to laziness.

I primarily play a tank in a mixture of solo PvE, group PvE and PvP situations. I do not want a dual spec system. The ability to switch into different specs limits the impact of the choices you make. Dual spec doesn't let you do everything possible, but it does let you do a heck of a lot.

I don't want to be the absolute best in every single situation I encounter. I want to play to my build's strengths, excel in certain areas, and rely on group members to fill in where my character might have weaknesses.

I do support some kind of respec system due to the long-term nature of MMO characters, and due to the way the game mechanics in MMOs can change; however it should not be easy or affordable to do all the time.

Unfortunately it's the one of the few (weak) arguments the anti-dual spec crowd cling onto, because any rational person would acknowledge that something that makes other peoples' game time easier, and more enjoyable while having no negative impact on their own if they choose not to participate in it, is a good thing for this game.

I just don't know what is so hard to understand about the eloquently written statemnt above.
Honestly, why have ANY class system at all? Anyone? Can someone please explain to me why there isn't just ONE class that can do everything in the game? I mean it's an MMO but certainly THAT doesn't have anything to do with it right? Play an MMO to play with other people? what? no no no, I want my character to be able to do everything thank you.

What is it with all of the arcade gamers playing MMO's and then whining about how it doesn't "play" like an arcade game. The predominate whine I hear from the Dual Specers is " are you (explecitive) serious, grind up another character"? of course, your choice of words gives away your underlying contempt for MMO gameplay, so why not just change up the formula so it brings the MMO game more in line with the game you DO like to play. Well, thanks but no thanks, i'm just fine leaving MMO gameplay the way as it is in SWTOR and would thank you very kindly for NOT changeing the game to suit YOUR self interest. It will be truly unfortunate for the community as a whole if this works it's way into the game.

Agreed, OP.
