Harald: partial respec for cav: removes 3 str and all riding skill + decreases str-skills when necessary for all chars which have at least 1 riding.
Really, Macropus? It's all about that I build my 1h cav build lvl 32 around heavy horses, especially War horse now. I need a full respec to make that char playable again, nothing else. Nobody will trade any lighter horse for my war horse, and also I don't want to play light cav, I want to play heavy cav, that's the sole purpose of that very char.You can't build your character around heavy horses because there's no direct link between a build and a horse to use, just your preferences. Yes, you are forced to change your equipment, but my point is that it's not new to this mod and happened many times before for the sake of balance.
Well, my build was a dedicated cavalry build with maxed out riding and NO athletics, so your whole point is invalid for me. They made my dedicated cav build useless.They made your horse useless.*
Nope. They made my build useless, not my horse. Or maybe both. I don't even care anymore. I guess I will have to use that shitty partial respec to make my char being able to use war horse and then never play that char again. :|Still I don't get how was your build made useless. You still can use medium-armoured horses with your build, don't you? How is that "made useless"?
Now I can't play that build anymore - "they made my build useless".But you do realize these are not the same thing?
Seems the guys that don't abuse OP stuff will never get a free respec. If you get 9 str refunded you can change a lot with your character for free while people that don't abuse OP stuff get nothing once again like with the minor xbow change
what the fuck grumbs
OP suggests to give back 9 STR alongside refunding all riding skill like is already given + you will have all those skill points refunded from any skill over your str limit. Thats a pretty hefty respec. You don't even need to put any points back into cav if you feel like trying something else. Meanwhile people that don't use OP stuff get no respec whatsoever
Just waiting for when they increase armour str req so people with the 15/24 so they can use their heavy cav won't be able to use armours that look the right weight xDThere's a difference though.
Well, my build was a dedicated cavalry build with maxed out riding and NO athletics, so your whole point is invalid for me. They made my dedicated cav build useless.
People seem to overestimate the damage caused to their builds. It's not really like your build got "destroyed", it's more like you are forced to use lighter horses. Which, of course, could mean one of your looms became useless for you, but hey, didn't that happen before when some items got nerfed heavily? Remember the Danish Greatsword? Did 2h ask for a full respec or get loom refund back then? No.
If you had 5 riding pre-patch, you can now use Barbed warhorse and Padded warhorse which are pretty decent.
what the fuck grumbs
No, why?
Of course it does. Maxed out means as much as your attribute level (i.e strenght or agility) allows you to put in the skill.
I had 18 agi with 6 riding, and they raised the requirement for my horse to 7 riding. :wink:
Well, we got a different definition of what "maxed out" means obviously.
I already adapted to the change, but there are cav players who can't adapt, because they would need to full respec to do so. For me the partial respec worked, although I am now playing a build I didn't plan. But it's ok too. Played two rounds, had 9:2 and 50ish points, so thats enough for me.
Good, glad it worked out.
Dont get me wrong it is not hate or anything, but Imagine my disdain after I triple loomed my long espada and it got nerfed to the ground. My first three looms were wasted completely in one patch, and I wont ever get my looms back.
The thing is the game changes, and you gotta either roll with it, or be trampled underneath the others.
When the long espada was nerfed, you could still equip it. Imagine if you could not equip the long espada or any of the high tier swords, and your character would lose more than 100m experience from respec or retire. That's more than 10 gens' worth. You can trade the horse away, but you can't use any armored horse on that character so you can't be heavy cav on your long-term heavy cav character.
Meanwhile people that don't use OP stuff get no respec whatsoever
