    they did not fix it, they lowered it because of the skill changes. now it's back to the normal pricing.

    Intended. The cheaper cost was due to skill changes in the last patch. This is the normal price for respecing .

    That's the normal price.

    It's just down to 1 or 10 gold per skill point right after a patch where they changed a lot of things with the skills, for a week or so, then it goes back to the normal price you mention.

    Cheap Gold Respecs are typically for one week after a major update that changes skills. It seems that the console platforms held on to their cheap respecs longer this time around. But, you usually only get one week of cheap respecs

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    At the cheaper price they might as well have been free, just back to normal now. You must have respecced more that one character for it to cost 15k gold.

    To be honest I think it'd be nice if respecs were free and didn't need to be done at a shrine. It'd really help unstagnate the metas because people wouldn't be so afraid of changing their setup and trying something new.

    Why isn't anyone asking why the cost is so high to begin with? The cheaper cost that was implemented should remain a permanent change.

    Yeah I miss not being able to swap morphs and skills everytime I go from trials to vma to pvp, makes me so sad. They need to bring in option to save skill sets from a price of in game gold to unlock it.

    I disagree that respecs should be free or cheap, you should have to put some thought into where you spend your points and have consequences if you want to change them. I have characters that I have never respecced on.

    There are plenty of skill points out there that you can always just go and get rather than take the fast option of respeccing. And before someone says there are not enough skill points to max out every skill line, that is as it should be. You should have to prioritize what is best for your character and the role you are playing.

    I agree with an option to save skill point allocations so that you can switch between setups to suit the task at hand or pick up some slack in a group. Things like switching from full dps to dps/healer or from tanking in a group dungeon to go to PVP, etc.
    Even if they introduced the capability to save settings, switching between them should still have an associated cost involved rather than being free.
