Respec with 7 day cooldown

Basically what I want to see is, rather than loosing 50% of XP every time you respec and being able to respec any time you want, to give us possibility to respec without experience loss but with a cooldown timer of one week, just like STF has.

I've also added poll to see what community thinks about it.

I really think it's a good idea and don't see any bad sides. It will make mod more appealing, casual and less "serious" and that's a good thing imho.

Also I forgot to mention two good things:

1) this will fix problem we have with veterans abusing no upkeep feature (they won't be able to go bellow level 26 ever again)
2) also devs will be more eager to make big changes in balance because people will always be able to respec if they aren't satisfied with their class

If I'm understanding this correctly, you're suggesting that a Once a week Respec with no XP loss be implemented.... but Eliminate the "respec any time for %50 xp loss".... If this is the case, I voted No.

I've used the hell out of the Respec feature since it became available Not because I thought I could avoid losing gold by staying under 26 (I thought that was only for Gen 1 anyway?), but because to be able to keep playing this game/mod, I'd change my class at lvl 29 or 30 to keep it Fresh.

Sometimes I want to Arch, sometimes I want to throw, sometimes I want to swing a stick, and other times I wanna swing a sword. I feel as thought any time spent on Alts is a waste of time, and with Skip the fun already having a 1 week cool down, that means that I have to wait a week to try ridiculous, but potentially fun builds. After spending a little over 1200 hours on this mod, I wanna be able to play whatever, whenever, with little to no penalties.

I'm fairly certain that clanmates / friends use each others as mules to transfer looms & gold between each other when making new mains.

Want that +2 item Poop st.. I mean, took from you, as well?

We both know c-rpg doesn't work that way.

Month is pretty long period if you happen to dislike your new class. A week is resonable for most c-rpg players.
