to be completely honest if this was a thing, I would probably would have done this and would have still play the game regularly.
forcing me to retire at level 34 was the death of the mod for me, but this change would save you players in the long run I think. While it might skew balance between classes when patches hit over time it would balance back out and your population wouldn't be hit as hard every time you release a patch that changes builds on the large scale.
Just my two cents on this thread I just seen. Didn't read anything but the first post.
P.S. xbow is a dead class pls help.
To be honest, this would actually help balancing the game. At first everybody would respec to whatever is the most OP, so these classes would get balanced faster than it is currently the case.
But yeah, retiring at 34 after the pole-sweetspot nerf put me off pretty much.
I am back at 32 with another character now (Gen1), Strat battles do not give any exp, even after the increase, so 33 seems reachable, but 34? Never.
I am at the point where I do not really care about the game much anymore. I like being on ts with people, having a laugh and shit, but if I was to get perm-banned now it would not be a big fuss for me. That's why I have been giving away all my looms and gold recently.
Also offering Respecs for 1LP would be a huge LP sink. So the worth of LPs would probably increase again. And that would be quite nice after it dropped to like 300k or so.
