Full Respec

Also, if your intention was to make a game where people are just supposed to research builds that other people have found to be successful and just copy them to avoid accidentally wasting a lot of time, then you've done a great job. I don't think that's what you were going for, but if it was, congratulations.
Look id be playing the game right now if I was able to respec my skill points at will. I need to test how a build works before i commit to it and in this game if you don't have prior knowledge of what's going to work in the later levels of the game you end up with a mess of a character that you put all your time effort and possibly money into. I can't keep making characters over and over till i fine tune everything especially when the skills change with nearly every new patch I don't have the time or the patience enough to do this for a single game, It's too much of a headache for me and i imagine for allot of people. if the players that like the barrier of sparse respecing then just don't respec if the option becomes available no reason i and others have to waste our time in something that may not be fruitful for us. I will say this When i first played the game i was lost in the woods so to say and i loved it i made my character the way i liked to play however as i got into early end game areas i noticed i was getting killed allot more than i was killing enemies and i couldn't even dream of killing bosses i hit the wall and wasn't able to kill enough enemies to gain enough experience to level and break the enemy strength barrier(Took me 3 straight days of playing to level one time), i found out it was my fun build's fault and that if i wanted to continue i had to remake my character into a build that didn't suit my playstyle, Not only that but the respec points i had weren't enough to make any difference at all i had to start from scratch i didn't have a choice and ive done this 5 times since hitting the same walls. Now i have a different account where i have end game characters that just sit there with their skill points because i don't want to make a move until i can find the build that not only works for me but works in end game. Or at least a finished "Set in stone" skill tree to work with.
I agree with the last two posters.

It was a showstopper for me, so I just quit instead. There are other fun games. There's nothing fun about retooling to fix skill point allocations, and there is nothing hardcore about it either.

Also I find it hilarious how hard the fanboys try to justify what I consider a petty mechanic, IMO.

The nostalgia is strong with these people. Diablo II was released in 2000. Times have changed.

Back in 2000 some of us had no issues grinding mobs all day and night in EverQuest, either.

But I have a real life now, and this is nothing but a time sink and a way for them to inject "replay value" into the game.

It is fun sucking and I don't like feeling like a game requires me to watch hours of YouTube videos and read books-worth of Wiki Pages before I even play to make sure I don't make mistakes that cause me to have to reroll at decently high levels.

lol at nostalgia. there are dozens of games from 90s and early 2000s that are far more interesting than 99% of trash that comes out today.

if 'times have changed' implies you dont have time to grind shit and would rather have a popcorn-filled, cutscene-heavy, linear, 30-minute session of todays gaming era, please speak for yourself only

a lot of people always have, do and will enjoy grinding in games. has nothing to do with times. your lack of time is your problem, not the games' problem.
Personally I wish you could convert Alchs back into Regrets at like 5:1 or even 10:1 or Chaos/Vaal.

Not being able to essentially break a higher value currency into smaller value orbs is kinda lame.

I end up with stacks and stacks of Alchs and Chromes but I always seem to be out or regrets to use to try out new skills etc. Yes I do reroll for major build changes I wanna try, but for the occasional 3-6 points moved around it becomes tedious.

I usually end up trading in all my fusings etc.

Inefficient? Pretty much, but it beats trading.

No full respec in game with SUCH a tallent three ? The most annoying thig in mmorpg's is not letting you full respec is not letting you experiment with your hero, is why people left so many great mmorpg's back in the days, is that YOU are so stupid GGG ? So you telling me that after 40lvl gameplay I must delete my character that I really like and create new because I cannot fully respect my newby build that I almost randomly builded because of my ignorance of the game ? You must be a REALLY stupid guys for thinking that wont let me (and by "me" I mean many many players) left this game in the garbage! Whoever gave this idea is a shame...!! Sorry bum Im not going decade and more back in Diablo days and do this SHIT that I HATE most of ALL!!
there should be a 1 time quest reward reset ... or like 35 respec points.. and once you use 1 of these respec points you lose them all (but retain earlier quest's respec points)
this way it is like a halfway total respec that you can only use once.


rewarded upon killing Malachai in Merciless
... no one kills him anyway, give it a reward please!

you can pay me now for doing your job better GGG :P

This is quiet an old thread I found it via google on first page when I searched for full respec. Totally agreed with the guy above, it doesn't make any sense not to have full respec.

1. When I asked help in General chat I was sent to hell with my noob question. NP I turned genreal chat off.

2. I tried to join to at least 4 guilds, but they sent me away, were inactive, or simply wasn't able to contact them as the game do everything to make my job hard to look for and apply to a guild ingame.

3. No problem, I kept playing solo and growing.

4. Like the game and wants to play pvp later. I look for good builds on google. And now when I totally fucked up my character as a new player, you (the devs) say I need to start a new one, just cause. There is no full respec... Are you Retarded? Do you think I will waste my time to do the same missions again, and again if there's a change in game mechanics in future? I don't want to play and own a hundred characters only one.

5. Ok good bye then, I play D3 or Grim Dawn.
Norden726 - there are lots of nice people on the forum who might help you.

We all get full respec (including bandits) when 3.0 come (or whenever bigger changes happen).

Every char gets some respec points for completing quests and you can always use an extra regret orbs (not extra cheap though).

Btw you can try lvl 28 pvp without spending even one minute exping char (just create pvp only char after meeting LeO master in town).
