Request: Triple spec

WoW Classic Season of Discovery
1

I’m primarily playing rogue and druid in SOD, Loving it btw!

I am struggling with frequent respecs on both characters. With the changes to tier .5, it’s nice to be able to dps, and heal on my druid, but to utilize the tanking set, i have to swap one of my specs over. I’d love to go back and tank dungeons for friends and guildmates (and I do) but it’s getting costly respeccing every week for raid.

Same on the rogue, I love to tank there as well, but I’m always missing out on a stealthy spec when the existing 2 are reserved for other things.

Adding a 3rd spec option for players I think would go a long way!

Thanks for consideration!

slippery slope is a logical fallacy, they said :expressionless:

3

3 specs and an equipment loadout feature would be great. Some way to change a full set of runes with one click too.

Most of us would pay extra gold for it.

4

One of the few things retail actually has gotten right is spec control(not necessarily specs themselves).

Change anytime anywhere you want, save as many load outs as you want and swap between them.

5

what the heck is the point of having specs then :expressionless: just give every talent to everybody

6

Oh my bad I forgot to include not in combat, I assumed that was implied.

7

even then :expressionless: why should you get to be a good farming spec and then be able to switch to a PvP spec when you meet an enemy. it’s ridiculous

Why not? Who cares if you can farm solo effectively and also be able to have fun in pvp and help out the group in raids.

9

you just don’t get it :expressionless: you have the retail mentality of convenience at any cost

10

There is no cost, well I guess some dev time from blizzard, but in game there’s no issues and only positives.

11

nope :expressionless: there’s many costs. you just don’t care about them.

12

Then I’m sure you can explain them.

Please explain why I care how exactly someone got the spec they care currently playing with. How does it negatively impact things if someone tanks a dungeon in a proper, then does something in a BG in a different then goes to a farm spec?

That’s a win for everyone they’re playing with since they’re in a proper spec for all the group activities.

there is indeed costs to having qol over some struggle (albeit not much stuggle) when it comes to things being rewarding.

you full well know what im talking about as weve gone at it very many times over the course of pre launch of classic to this day.

struggle and friction make things more rewarding if done right .

you refuse to acknowledge that simple fact and so its a non starter for any conversation with you.

And with the way specs worked in WoW it wasn’t done right.

Pay 50g and click a few times at a trainer isn’t rewarding and just leads to people do less things in game.

But ultimately this is a solved real problem, dual spec and then even more lax options didn’t create any of the issues vanilla andies whine about.

that would be very much up for debate.

but seeing as how you lean mostly for qol on nearly every question about it, you wouldnt be able to tell if something was more rewarding being harder if you had to.

theres a reason people keep coming back to era style stuff and have for nearly 18 years called for some type of legacy server.

the things that are struggles in this game make it more rewarding than anything modern comes down the pipe with.

loot is a struggle.

specs can be a struggle.

grinds are a struggle.

ect ect.

even with the dual spec being a thing there is struggle to have , thus people asking for a 3rd or more specs.

that natural friction is what makes the mmo.

otherwise you get the unrewarding crap that throws random epics at you all the time and account wide everything that only further reduces any friction that makes the game feel like you accomplished anything even the small victories.

So you are just conflating a bunch of disparate ideas so you can say retail bad herp derp.

And there’s Era for #nochanges warts and all with no reasoning about why something is good or bad.

The reason people want more than dual spec is the same reason they want dual spec in the first place.

That doesn’t change struggling for loot or struggling with whatever grind. Indeed easier access to specs means more people actually participate in those grinds in the first place.

Is your argument that vanilla was perfect and had no room for improvement?

If not then just saying things are connected is not a meaningful reason why easier access to specs is bad.
