Skill Discussions

I have played this game for a long time and i enjoy it very much. With all the changes made over the years it has encumbered certain ships that i have trained for and pretty much made them useless for the reason that i trained them for. My suggestion to that would be a full skill reset for anyone who has played for more than three years. certain ships do not even come close to what they used to be. along with equipment and gear that was not available at the time we started playing.

How about a little balancing of our old characters here to compensate for all of the changes made over the years. I for one would gladly pay a plex to reset my skill tree and redistribute all those useless points to areas i could benefit from their distribution. I am also sure others would agree with this, and some would say no way but it is the only fair way to let us take back points that we would not have put in our characters in the first place if the game was made this way 5 years ago.

Thanks for your time and i hope this occurs.

Hell No !!!

Not empty quoting.

Also: This topic has been gone over many many many times already. So could you OP please explain, in detail, why, exactly, you felt the compelling need to make another thread about it? Enquiring minds want to know.

And here we go again...

Honestly if you have been playing the game for years, and the skill changes over the last year or so have made your character unplayable something is very wrong. You should still have all your core skills not to mention the ability to fly at every BC or lower tech 1 ship in the game. (If you didn't raise BC to 5 I have no sympathy for you.) Yeah maybe you have a Battleship skill at 5 for carriers, a lot of mining skills for Orcas, and a Indy skill at 5 for a freighter, but those skills are still useful. Battleship V was a pain to train up for carriers, but it's still useful flying Battleships, and for t2s. Personally I'm happy I don't need to train Battleships to V twice more to get access to all caps in the game.

Thanks for wasting mine, I hope you biomass.

Biomass all your toons and start again.
there's your reset right there.

Confirming that this is the best possible solution for everyone. Go with this.

I would love this but instead of using a plex to reset ALL sps how about this:

You can only reset a section of skills such as industry or gunnery or electronics. This would cost you a respec point(or multiple respec points). You could do this once per year then instead of every FOTM

If you buy a character, then you buy it's history. This includes the corps it's been involved in, the scams it may have been involved in and the skill set it has. The sale of characters happens, because CCP allows it as it doesn't bypass those consequences.

The only real guarantee of a perfect character, is to train it yourself when you know exactly what you want. But if you are buying one then keep looking. If you don't like the skill set one has, then don't buy it.

The beauty with this game is it doesn't limit you to a class. If at any time you change your mind and wish to go in another direction, then simply train the skills.

I'll leave you with this quote, that states all the reasons it's a bad idea.
