I believe that CCP on Eve should allow characters at least once through plex or another means of payment to be able to swap skills from one character to another. After those characters have swapped skills both would no longer be able to do another swap! FOr instance, you have a character you've been playing for ages and now its getting boring with that character and it would cost you months to train a brand new character in a different faction or it would still cost you months to allow that character to rebuild their standing with another faction before being able to move on. This is the same as when we attend college we either start in a major we want or were undecided. Are we limited to that Major and thats it? no we are allowed to change our Mjor while keeping the knowledge that we currently have. I feel it should be the same here instead the Major becomes the Character we want and the Knowlege becomes the skills we have. I hope this is an idea that would come in a patch some day!

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Another skill respec idea and not even a good one.

You know.. that Tippias list which states why skill repspec is a bad idea, it's still out there. Look it up and if you think you can come up with reasoned and logical counter arguments I'm willing to listen to you. But until then... Not in my EvE, GTFO, WoW is that way, Can i have your stuff and all the other standard responses apply.

awful idea.

I think the counter argument to the college major example is that you don't unlearn what you did before the change of focus.

SP investment should always be one way only and static.

To be honest, i actually like the idea of being able to transfer skills from one character to another.

But i'd put them up for sale on public, make the transfer cost a PLEX or so like with Character Transfers, and make it dependant whether or not both characters have a neural remap available. Have not? No transfer.

Oh yeah and after they extract the Data from your brain, you obviously need to respec this skill in order to use everything that has it as prerequestie.

This.


I heartily endorse the above-mentioned course of action.

Either live with the consequences of your decisions, or start over. Option three is to go to the Character Bazaar.

We all have SP's we wish we could move. Deal with it.
