keshaikol Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 i have a lvl 50 sorceror. decided i wanted an assassin to lvl on the side. wo got to lvl 11 went to fleet to choose my class and accidently chose sorceror again. when a gm replied they said to just suggest it to the developers. so it looks like i have to delete and reroll if i want to change advanced class. which is pretty ****. gettin to 10 doesnt take a long time but it still takes time. time that i hav now wasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parali Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Greetings, There are no plans to allow switching between Advanced Classes at this time, however we do plan to allow dual spec in a future update. Here is what Lead Game Designer Daniel Erickson had to say in a recent Weekly Q&A: Lovarboy: Will we get dual spec with Game Update 1.3? Daniel: Unfortunately, no. Game Update 1.3 is being kept a bit leaner to get the Group Finder and the next stage of Legacy in the game as fast as possible. After that we’ll be returning to some bigger updates and we’re hoping dual spec makes it for the next one. We know this doesn't necessarily help your character's situation at this moment, but it might help you plan for the future of other characters. Thank you for your feedback!

DirtyDiggler Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 so your saying duel spec will allow you to switch between advanced classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathisk Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I agree. The advanced trainer needs to verify that you are making the right choice. I suggest they put in more checks. Like: Are you sure? Are you really sure? Are you really REALLY sure? You know you're about to make the wrong choice. Right? Last chance to change your mind... I mean it. Seriously this time. Are you absolutely positive? And then the person can be assigned the advanced class they choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalk it up to you learning how to pay attention, delete the new Sorc and make a new toon. You are in this situation due to your own lack of care, not anything anyone else did. Suck it up and roll a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frobalt Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 If we can't switch any time we want, why not have a grace period for switching? By this, I mean you can change between the advanced classes at a charge for as long as you are level 10, so that way players can get a small taste of what each of the advanced classes does before deciding to stick with one.

It's also why I'm very careful when choosing my advanced class - although in fairness if there isn't an "are you sure?" pop-up (I can't remember if there is) maybe there should be.

YanksfanJP Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) so your saying duel spec will allow you to switch between advanced classes. No, it's just a Community Rep who has no idea what the OP is actually complaining about trying to smooth things over by just posting something even though it's completely irrelevant. This is why we inevitably end up with kettles that have "Warning - boiling water, do not put your hands inside!" on them. I bet it went something like this: "Ok, I already have a Sorcerer, pick Assassin, pick Assassin, pick Assassin, pick Assassin, pick Assassin..." "Which do you choose? Sorcerer or Assassin?" "I HAVE A SORCERER, THEY MUST MEAN THAT!" click FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Edited May 19, 2012 by YanksfanJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikelGoff Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I don't get the question. Is he asking for a UAC-like thing where every decision we make has a pop-up of "are you sure", followed by "Are you really sure"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkgryphon Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 so your saying duel spec will allow you to switch between advanced classes. I see nothing about "duel" spec at all. So I don't know what you're getting at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therrak Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 This is why we inevitably end up with kettles that have "Warning - boiling water, do not put your hands inside!" on them. It's also why I'm very careful when choosing my advanced class - although in fairness if there isn't an "are you sure?" pop-up (I can't remember if there is) maybe there should be. There is a pop up that explains the basics of each AC, tells you what armor type and weapons each AC uses, and lets you look at the skill trees. If a person isn't paying attention to that, then a "Are you sure?" pop up isn't going to help him or her out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
