Respec Cost lesson not learnt from WoW?

D1? RNG
D2? Paid respec
D3? Free
LA? Free (yes it is an MMO-ARPG)
LE? Essentially free, it costs next to nothing to respec.
POE? Easy to find regret orbs… by the time you’re done the campaign you should have at least 20-30 of them plus the ones you get doing the campaign. Once you’re in red maps you should have 100s.
DI? Free

Never got into Grim Dawn. Any ARPGs that relevant that I missed?

So 5 of these 8 have respec costs. And LA shouldnt exactly be on the list, it is not an A-RPG. D:I isn’t really one either. Making it more like 5 out of 6.

Then add Sacred 1 and 2. No respecs.
Torchlight 1 and 2. As far as I recall, no respecs (Maybe a respec cost was added later on), albeit you could cheat to do it, which obviously doesn’t count.
Titan Quest. Respec cost.

So 10 out of 11 got respec restrictions/cost, or 10 out of 13 if you want to include the non-ARPGs.

@leusebi-1647

I mean, if your argument is that the cost should be about the same as POE, then I agree?

Yeah I’d be reasonably fine with that too. The respec currency should however not be tradeable.

@MrHoliday-11214

Seems like the norm is low cost or no cost. D4, is far out of the norm with their scummy system.

D4 specifically has a low respec cost. Sadly. Should be much higher.
