No free respecs

I didn't think about this until just now, but it seems weird that we weren't given free CP and skill morph respecs given the hybridization and other combat changes this patch. It seems like a pretty big change and in the past we've been given the ability to do respecs for free at the shrines and all.

    Armory.
    You just save a completely blank setup (with attributes, SP and CP reset).
    Apply for free as many times as required.
    Also it would be very nice if Zeni grants us more Armory slots, maybe at least one B)

    That only works for people who aren't already using their slots for something else, though, and we shouldn't need to use a workaround when this is such a big change and we've been given free respecs for large changes in the past.

    I usually only see free respecs/skill points reset when major changes occur that affect key game systems (CP tree revamp, etc) or class/spec overhauls happen that change the fundamental playstyle of that class/spec.

    IMO the changes with this patch are not substantial enough to require ZOS to provide a free respec (refund of skill points/morphs) for everyone. There are some classes and specs that were barely affected, if at all.

    Sure, there's going to be some meta changes on gear sets and builds, but that's every patch.

    That being said, with the ridiculously high price of Armory slots, and the inability to swap Armory builds where it would be most useful (e.g. trials) I do agree that players shouldn't be forced to waste an expensive blank Armory slot just to reset their character's skills and morphs for free. Personally, I would rather just see all gold / Crown costs removed from all of the shrines, since the logic behind charging players for them in the first place is very outdated and increasingly irrelevant to how the game is played now vs. in 2014.

    On ZOS's end, they need to have a feature where we can save our CP Tree for each character. We should not need an addon for it. This way, right after an update, if it resets, we can go into the menu of our character and select "Load last saved CP configuration" or something.

    technically speaking that is included in the armory, but would have to still be done per toon to at least save the "current" build (and then you would need to remember to update this save if you changed it)

    Why should there be? There were no major changes. Everything you ran till now still works just the same, only difference is that it scales of the highest stat, you don't lose anything, but gain a lot.

    Kind of agree, yes you might want to change morphs and a bit on cp.
    For this one its way way better to pay to modify cp and morphs than to document then reset and rebuild everything with armory. I used an addon who let me set all the combat passives and an nice sett for the green, leaving me just to fill the slotable for builds.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Not going to happen, for one very important reason:

    just do writs on 1 or 2 chars and sell the dreugh waxes.

    you can get 15k to pay for all of it.
    plus armory station exists to save your char after you reset everything with gold.

    Shadow strike is the best cp passive ever!
