Please don’t add Dual Spec to SoD

I’ve seen this being requested a lot and it is not a good feature imo.

One of the highlights of Era is that you are stuck with the spec you chose, and having to change it involves going back to your capital city which not only keeps the city feeling more alive but while you’re there you might stop by the AH, vendors, etc. which contribute to how lively the world feels.

Dual Spec kills that immersion, it will be like Wrath where all capital cities are dead and no one ever is immersed anywhere since the game is essentially Retail again and not Classic.

I am forced to go to the city before and after every single raid to switch between fire and frost for PvE/pvp.
I portal directly to the mage trainer and spend gold to respect and than hearth back to ashenvale it’s not immersive it’s just annoying and a chore.

Without duel spec you punish people for wanting to PVP and PvE and some won’t do one or the other due to gold costs or the time consuming nature of constant respec.

Lowering the cost to respec is a step in the right direction but duel spec was one of the best QoL updates we ever got.

Yep! Lots of things happen in the city for good reason.

:woman_shrugging:

Literally one way to describe the absolute best things about what makes Classic classic.

While this sort of narrative seems to be common among people who want something, and are trying to appeal perhaps to some moral sense of not wanting others to suffer or be punished, it’s not about this at all.

Having meaningful trade-offs to make give decisions that some might argue is the core of any RPG type game. Removal of them leads to much more shallow and hollow experiences as we see in Retail/Wrath.

Buy dual spec for 50g.

Swapping betweens specs costs 1g at lvl 25. 4g at 40. 6g at 50. 10g 60.

Maybe its a little much… But I want to see a viable gold sink that keeps gold at a relative low compared to seeing prices inflate over the moon by 50.

Maybe one day people will learn to just report every RDF post and stop giving him the attention he wants by pretending he’s being serious…

I liked you better as Garmuck.

It’s like your heart isn’t in it anymore.

I actually agree, dual spec does kill the commitment part of the game. And i dont think itll be added because thats too much code for the devs to deal with.

maybe the game wasnt designed for you to switch to frost spec to raid and fire to pvp, maybe your class identity should be one or the either and you have to stick with it. if you want both, roll druid.

Dual spec is REQUIRED for SoD.

A game that’s all about discovery and trying new builds/runes etc.

Dual spec ASAP.

if dual spec is a must does that mean you currently arent playing SoD?

nah if they just gave us dual spec but you had to go to the Trainer every time you wanted to switch that would fix the issue of raiding and what not but still allow healers and tanks to farm stuff AND PvP. ( Im a big PvPer and i kind of wanna has MS for pvp)

the respecing doesnt keep gold down. It jsut screws over people trying new thing or PvPers.
