[Remove / Lower] Reskill & Reattribute cost

Whyn Aurum · April 2015

So I hear that ZOS is concerned about PvP players not doing any PvE, and PvE not fighting in Cyrodil.

Well Your major problem with that is the fact that the reskill is too damn expensive in this game and someone who would both like to make the daily Undaunted quest AND do some PvPing would have to spend an average of 10k gold (?) per day.

Gold is very tough to come by in this game if you are not a grinder, and I'm unable to spend this kind of money on a regular basis to be able to do some PvE.

I would suggest removing the cost entirely and locking the possibility to respec for an hour once someone does it.

Id prefer a duel spec setup one for pvp one for pve.

Gold is hard to come by in this game? Spend half an hour in a dungeon in Cyrodiil before you start your PvP for the day. You will get the skyshards, the PvE achievements and loot you can vendor.

I'm not sure why you need to respect every time you leave Cyrodiil to do PvE? I find the task of actually reassigning all the skill points to be a far greater deterrent to respeccing than the gold cost is.

The items are already on Crown Store. I doubt they will change now.
At looong time ago, the devs stated that they dont want to make Dual soec (pvp, pve). Players should be capable of playing all content the way they wanted. Again, i dont agree, i just remember what they said, so i guess they wont change.
I like both ideas but i found hard to come true.

You don't need two specs. I manage to have a spec for PvP and DPS and Solo and Healing without changing a single skill morph or attribute point or even champion point. I just use the ability that works best for situation and change out gear.

Actually I think the respec costs are managed rather poorly myself.

I think overall a sliding scale system would have worked far better, and by that, I mean the following:

- The first respec is free
- The 2nd respec on the same day costs x amount of gold
- The 3rd respec on the same day cost more

and so on and so forth

This promotes experimentation without overly penalizing the player for doing so.

Now, the reset time doesn't need to be the same day, it could be every few days, to a week, but definitely not longer than that.

Might work fine for your class/build. But in case you're unaware, the different (stamina and magicka) build types of each class work differently and a magicka sorc might be able to do both pve and pvp while a magicka NB isn't likely to do much in PvE with his stealth playstyle tailored for Cyrodil.

Nah, those costs are in an ok place now.
They were already lowered significantly... it was WAY higher during the earlier months.
And even then we paid it...

Dude no. Deal with it.
