Respec
 
When you log in to the game you will receive a pop up box. This box will give you a brief explanation of respec as well as the slash command to reaccess it at a later time if you choose. You will then see an option to be taken to the respec screen. The selections on this screen are:
  1. Never
  2. Later
  3. Yes

If you choose never, you will still have access to the initial screen by typing in the specified slash command.
If you choose later, you will receive the pop up box on your next play session.
If you choose yes, you will be taken to the respec screen.

The next screen is very complex and we highly recommend that you read it ALL before progressing. There are automated help bubbles to assist you with this process.

The respec screen looks similiar to the skill tree. You will manipulate your skill points on this screen. The only skills that will be able to be respec are the combat skills.

Players may respec their skills once every 12 hours for two weeks from the initial login for Combat Upgrade - however we there may come a time where we may need to withdraw this down the road.

Professions that can respec:

  • Brawler
  • Marksman
  • Scout
  • Fencer
  • Pike
  • Swordsman
  • Teras Kasi
  • Carbineer
  • Rifleman
  • Pistoleer
  • Commando
  • Squad Leader
  • Bounty Hunter
  • Bio-Engineer
  • Doctor
  • Combat Medic
  • Ranger
  • Jedi
  • Creature Handler
  • Smuggler
  • Medic

Thanks for clearing that up.  Can you explain why the decision to allow respec only for combat professions?  Significant changes were made to non-combat professions as well (armorsmith and entertainers come to mind.)

Does this mean withdrawn before the 2 week period ?
(or did you plan on leaving it on a little longer ? )

How will respec affect our badges? If we respec to a new profession, do we get the master badge? If so, then can we get all the master badges in two weeks? If not, then is it that at the end of the two weeks then you get the master badges since respecing is over? What if you earn the master badge within the two weeks without respecing?

Does medic count as a combat profession since Doctor is considered a combat profession?

what about instances when after you respec and your new template has a few leftover skill points?  if you decide to respec after that are you only allowed to respec with the lower number of skill points or is there an option to return to original template.  please give the official version for those of us not fortunate enough to do any conversion testing.

Yes, I am in agreement -- any way we can allow altering crafting professions???
 
Also, what about the FS skills? Any way we can respec those as well?  It is obviously a disappointment to many to know that their professions are less important in the grand scheme of things, and they will possibly be changing from melee to ranged, or vice versa.  Perhaps allow the same type of respecing with FS skill branches?  I have no good ideas as to how to do that fairly to all, but it is just an idea .  Good luck tonight, I eagerly await finding out what in the world I can now do
