Adding dual spec will increase the number of tanks and healers and make it easier to find groups

Ok, we need like a copypasta for this, at this point. Something to slap people with every time someone makes this tired argument.
Or you could just pay 1000g for the ability to alternate between two that you prefer to play. Same principle, really, just one is a far more logical choice.
Not my argument. That’s Greg Street.
And yet they didn’t add it until Ulduar, explain that one champ. Oh I guess they got behind right…tell me more about the inner workings of the WoW dev team 
which is why it was added to WRATH not TBC.
Yes it is lol.
Aww… 
Uh-huh, but you’ll still play the game regardless since you definitely stood on those principles by continuing to play the game after the changes they have made so far. Despite 2.4.3 on release and the fact that they’ve said they’re adopting a #SomeChanges attitude.
PvP change is imminent next by the way.
But no, it’s about the integrity!
Muh integrity!!
Are you playing a tank? If so good. if not you are part of the player created problem
I have no idea why they dont make arguments that play off your own like.
“I don’t it lessens the experience, I think it makes it better. Rather than having Spec identity, dual spec puts emphasis on Class identity. I would appreciate being able to feel more like a druid that be a bear, or a cat, or a tree. Than a Resto druid who only heals because changing is a hassle.”
But no, its all, “I want this so others will tank for me”, or “money hard”

Everything said in these threads has been said dozens of time in other threads. There’s still one going that has about 2k replies. We could all just copy paste from that thread. I don’t want to be here. I don’t want to talk to any of you. If I explained why I don’t want to talk to you I’d get a 3 day suspension. But each reply bumps the topic to the top of the front page. That’s the only reason I have for replying to you
You only reply because the topic is near the top?
Already did. But I think Feywaif already established you don’t really read anything.
Was intended for TBC and they weren’t able to do it in Wrath for various reasons. Same thing goes for a lot of changes that they weren’t able to implement in previous expansion–they eventually got rolled over into the next expansions.
Unless you’re like Zipzo and you assume any changes Blizzard makes are also made within the same week as they’re implemented.
Each change has been used to address an issue that would have been amplified by the number of players playing TBCC compared to retail TBC, and also the new generation that we play this decidedly old game in.
So I reconcile with them.
Dual spec is not something similar. It’s easy to make the gold to respec. Its inclusion invalidates certain reasoning behind class identity that was still a fixture of the game until WOTLK brought “bring the player not the class”.
Since I don’t call the shots, I’m telling you that some of the changes I’ve reconciled with because I can see how they help the game.
My opinion is dual spec does not, all you want it for is to cater to your desire to be lazy. You either accept that some people simply have that perspective, or you can keep acting triggered over it.
No, I got the crux of what your entire position is:
You just pretend to stand on principle for no changes until things are changed.
Based on this track record you’ll do nothing except roll over if any future changes are implemented, including Dual Spec.
You’re just a kitten.
As opposed to what? Are you saying I have some other option at my disposal in this conversation/debate?

Because it was a large project with a lot of people working on it? Things don’t happen overnight. They were working on a large expansion too you know.
The blue post that was linked was a question answered during WOTLK.
The actual response doesn’t indicate anything about where they stood during TBC.
I’m fully willing to believe they eventually jumped onboard the dual spec train as a dev team…in WOTLK, because that’s what the evidence shows.

You can always stand on principle. I mean, you already seem to think Blizzard is dirty, what with your comments regarding the purchase of Rift Stalkers.
You like to pretend to be white-knighting issues that you just roll over on when they’re implemented. You continue giving money to people who aren’t doing what you want them to do.
Or you just invent reasons why the changes were correct all along even though it conflicts with your earlier statement that this game is supposed to be like it was back in the day.
You’re just a walking contradiction.
Oh right, so like if I have any niggling issue with the game, I should just quit instead of voice my opposition to changes I don’t like. Literally the whole point of these forums.
Yeah makes total sense
You. Don’t. Know. How. To. Read.
This has been gone over and over and over and over. The post above your response, made by Delimicus, has addressed this for the upteenth time.
You are a walking contradiction. Every one of your arguments is “I don’t want it because I don’t like it.”
All of your trepidations concerning this topic have been addressed and your only resort has been to either ignore them or return to your earlier sentiments even though they’re irrational.
At this point you’re just arbitrarily trying to box me in to whatever weird interpretation you have of my arguments against dual spec for the sake of not having to actually make any rational points yourself, so say whatever you want, tbh.
You aren’t even responding to the fact you linked a POST-WOTLK blue post that doesn’t reference, at all, how they felt in TBC, as an argument for them adding it to TBC.
You’re a joke.
