Not implementing duel spec is an absolutely ridiculous idea in an mmo game in 2012.

PVP.

...and as to your idea of a PVP spec that triggers on entering a WZ...why? What's the fear of general Dual speccing?

What would Dual Spec do to make your gameplay worse if you never want to use it?

I'd say that the devs stating that they understand that things like Dual Spec, Addons, Min/Maxing and other modern MMO standards are important to stay competitive pretty much says that eventually they'll be in the game.

...also please tell us exactly how Dual Spec would impact you personally because I've yet to see any valid argument against the feature other than from RP'ers.

or that they realise that there are alot of players that doesnt want it. And when people are complaining that this game doesnt have fluffy purple unicorn and will fail because wow has it they make sure they dont angry those people at the start of the game.
neither you or me knows what will happen later in the game.

But i am not the one that are stating that Bioware have promised dual specc aswell in this thread

I fully expect some incoherent babbling about how he'd cancel his account... minus the cancelling thing.

Of course lets not forget sidestepping the direct question as well.

Most of us are paying customers that wish to play a game on an even playing ground. Dual speccing puts people on an uneven playing ground, especially in PvP. Those that don't understand how dual specs are unfair in PvP are either ignorant or need an unfair advantage to succeed.

That is why there is a test server. Try it some time.

Sooo, roll a healer?

That's what companions are for. In addition, there are 3 tanks and 3 healers on each side. There is hardly a lack of either. Try socializing and networking, it works wonders in an MMO.

Weren't you just talking about flawed arguments? For the record, I'm an oncology surgeon and most certainly work more hours than you do, and enjoy one spec.

You can have fun with one spec and actually be a player worth his salt in a group. I would much rather have a straight tank that knows his role than another who flip flops his role and never truly gets a ideal grasp on their main role.
