Because you can already do it any nobody seems to care…
Edit:
Today i learn people only read titles and don’t actually check/read the actual post. Everyone is commented about what MIGHT happen if they are added completely ignoring the video where they explain how to do it…
There are only two things that are infinite: the universe and human stupidity. Although I’m not quite sure about the universe.

Nice but your choices should be thought out - and there are ways to respec ingame which requires effort

For people wondering. There is already an unlimited respec method. You just have to work for it instead of the ability to respec being handed to you on a silver platter because you are too lazy to farm for the items needed to respec a character.

Leaving it alone also won’t ruin it.

just think it through a bit. lets say we have unlimited respecs. what would prevent me from respecing my sorc quickly to give everyone in my ladder reset team a 12 minute enchant and respecing back to a cold sorc. what would prevent my barb from respecing to a bo barb every 7 minutes to bo my party and going back? that would be way to OP.

What’s that? The whole level you’re doing is cold immune? No problem, just respect into fire. OMG… now everything is fire immune? Back to cold… good thing we got infinite respecs. WHAT? now everything is cold AND fire immune? Glad I can go pure lightning due to infinite respecs…

You dont even have to work for it. You make a game called Rush for Forge/Sockets
Yup - unlimited respecs ALREADY exist. And NOT just for solo play (mods). Sorry guys, but advocating for this one to me, is just pure pathetic, and par for par of the new gen… "give me now now now’…
That might sound rude, it is what it is. Real tired of this one.
FACT : ALREADY EXISTS.

Neat little tidbit of info, BUT… according to that video, it’s only for Offline mode, which according to the so-called “experts” here, is not real D2.
That is in single player. Who cares what you do in single player? Do whatever you want in single player. That is where you should be testing things…
Ill give you 2 tokens for an um rune. Special price just for you.
The game already has infinite respecs you silly goose! You just have to work for all but three of them!

Exactly you can already do it so no need to ask for it to be added again.

I never understood people’s obsession (and stupidity) with needing so many respecs. Make an alt of the same class for whatever other spec you want to run. You can get to your mid 80’s with single digit hours of time effort. You can then play all of these specs whenever you want.

Someone doesn’t understand the concept of throttling or gating content. When you make infinite respecs instant the experience gets dulled down due to min max swapping everytime you change areas to farm something else. If everyone can be any spec at any time where’s the character identity? Respecs right now are at just the right amount of free respecs (one per difficulty) and then if you decide later you want to min max, well you have to do some boss farming for essences after acquiring gear that warrants a respec.
Remember when we could swap specs on the fly? How memorable were those specs in Diablo 3? You don’t remember because it was boring? Ah I see. End game in D2 also involves experimenting with new builds to see what works. The speed at which you do this is limited to make you appreciate major build changes.

You really only need 1 respec for each character but if you are playing a sorc you might want two.
Leveling build → End Game Build
Sorceress:
Lightning Build (No Respecs needed.)
Leveling Build ->Blizz MF Build->End Game Build
I thought the OP was just going to be another repeat of pointing out the Tokens of Absolution, but then I clicked-through to the video, and it’s actually a command-line argument that grants unlimited respecs without any work.
I didn’t know the option existed before I saw the vid.
I just tested it on one of my characters, and it does work. No Token needed.
It supposedly only works for Offline characters, though, so for most people it won’t even matter.
Well that would be extremely tedious. Clicking thousands of times to reselect your skills and attributes for 1 single game would wear my fingers out.
