Give us duall spec on the new servers. Please...OR at least reduced costs of respec

[Majat-draktharon]

Now lets apply some basic Logic to every reason the very very few #nochanges no dual spec have offered thus far.

@Anthracia-burning-legion

︎ People are less likely to roll an alt for farming

Wrong, some classes are way better at farming despite what you spec into. Im not going to solo Farm Dire Maul on a Warrior no matter what Spec I am in, Im getting a Mage.

@Anthracia-burning-legion

︎ People may be more likely to roll on a pvp server, which are already more popular than pve servers, because they can just press a button and go from a perfect pvp spec to perfect pve spec

First off the vast majority of players play on PvP servers anyways, and second those who don’t like PvP are not going to swap over just because now you can Dual Spec. They don’t like PvP and that why they’re on PvE in the first place.

@Anthracia-burning-legion

︎ Some classes have hybrid pve/pvp specs that are good for doing dungeons and good enough for world pvp. Nobody will play those anymore

Wrong again, that Hybrid PvE/PvP spec still has its place out in the World where you have to fight just to get into dungeons but you also need to Quest a little as well. I tend to play and willa lways pretty much play a Demo/Sacrifice spec as I level a Warlock because it is good enough for PvE and great for PvP too. Will I top the meters versus and Aff lock in the dungeon? No, but Im doing damage and Im not here to parse a 5 man dungeon as I level up to 60.

︎ Heal specs are less likely to group with others if they can just swap specs whenever, for free. I can solo a lot of stuff on a paladin, if I can get into the proper build and gear. Why do I need your help?

I literally Play a Shaman who Tanks/DPS/Heals throughout my entire Journey, and Dual Spec the way it usually works is that you have to actually pay for it before you can use it which is typically pretty expensive. Which in layman’s terms means people will be getting dual spec around the same time that Specs begin to matter in Dungeons. Such as when I get to about level 54 and am running BRD and am not Resto but am healing, then I can feel the difficulty is rough. Everyone still needs your help throughout the vast majority of the leveling process.

@Anthracia-burning-legion

︎ It makes the game even more min-maxified, because people are going to be expected to be in the perfect spec for the given content at all times

Nah, sorry but thats a retail thing usually and Classic simply doesnt struggle with this as much until you get into raiding because the raid lead requires something like Improved Totems from one shaman, and the other needs to be deep resto etc. This bring me right back to how Classic is played, the vast majority of the leveling process anyone who has more than one role can essentially already do those roles until most of the game is finished already, which is when you would get Dual Spec (late game and when you could actually afford to buy Dual Spec)

︎ It removes what is one of the few substantial gold sinks/ inflation reducers that remains after people have bought all their skills, professions, mount, etc.

You know whats a substantial gold sink? Raiding with full consumes, and pushing content. Thank you for bringing this up because I am a Dad, and I am here to casually raid and I don’t want to be farming Gold more rather than less if at all possible, just because I wanna Raid one night and PvP the other.
