You can PM me if you prefer.

This, at the very least, allows the player to redeem some value from the "old" enhancement . . .

I really wish that we could have one powerset swap on a toon. I wouldn't even object if it was a one time thing, restricted to a fairly low level ... say 10 or so ...

I know full well the Devs don't want to allow powerset respecs, and I understand why, but it'd be nice if it was permisable at the lower levels ...

I've just thought of something brilliant, though. What if we got all the people who post saying the game is empty together? They could form their own supergroup and blame each other for ducking out of team-ups and TFs instead!

Suppose we choose what powers these dummies have ourselves?One dummy could be a blaster.Another dummy could be a controller,and another dummy could be a tanker..

..and also,I see having this power as kind of fitting because you are basically the ones making the dummies talk(Just like any of a Mastermind pets),as though you were a Ventriloquist for them.

My simple solution, if possible, is to combine some servers.
Highest average online + lowest
2nd high + 2nd low
3rd high + 3rd low
4th high + 4th low
5th high + 5th low
Of course I would settle for combining down to seven servers for now and see if things maybe pick up when its easier to get teams. Because from 10 to 5 is a big leap but something must be done. Please do not rely on "Going Rogue"

I realize I might be the only one who liked patrol.
This is just an idea, please don't get mad.

Anyway, this got my mind racing. What if....

Will there ever be a system in place that allows a character to respec into new powersets? Now, I am not simply saying one should be able to simply repec from stone armor to willpower or nrg melee to superstrength without penalty or consequence. And I am definitely not suggesting the ability to trade AT's. What I am saying is there would need to be a system in place to prevent any sort of exploitation and not cause our devs too many headaches.

.... what if.... (and please don't flame me too severely... I am simply imagining, "what if?")

(Level 50 player approaches Elite Respecification Arbitor.....)

Player - "Arbiter, I would like to change my disciplines."

Arbiter - "Do you realize the significant consequences of this request? Lord Recluse will have both our heads if finds out about this!"

Player - "Yes I do sir?"

Arbiter - "Return to me after completing your assigned tasks."


(Player returns after completing arduous tasks....)

Arbiter - "You have completed my tasks. Very good. Very good indeed. Are you sure you wish to continue your power restructuring?"

Player - " I am certain."

Arbiter - "Very well. Your level has changed from lvl 50 to lvl 1. You may keep your earned accolades. All inventions and power enhancements on your person will be sold to the black market for fair market value. Please choose your new power sets and be gone... as to not draw too much attention to my operation."
__________________________________________________ _________________________

I know this is HIGHLY unlikely. However, my example would not be considered exploitable because players taking advantage of this would be taking MASSIVE penalty. These "level 1's" would be at square one just like any other new toon, with the obvious exception of earned accolades and any ammassed fortune. (No doubt these would help, but who doesn't give their lowbies a boost of infamy/influence from a lvl50 anyway? And you already DID earn those accolades!)

RP'ers could use this if, say for instance, their big bad brute is going soft and heading to Atlas Park to clean up the streets with a new identity and set of powers when GR is released.

People like me, who wouldn't mind keeping an old brute around, but only if we could change from that energy melee to something fresh and exciting.... say for instance claws! =)

Just something to make you go.... hmmmmmm
Have fun all... that's why we play!

Please provide feedback and suggestions as the more we ask, beg and rebel for change to more apt it is to occur.



What if you could use the existing "choose build" option to be allowed to change your secondary **OR** primary powerset only. (one or the other, not both :P )

Perhaps it could be incorporated into a "perk" upgrade, like the magic, wedding, science ect perks.

Maybe after the purchase a new contact could be placed on the map to do a powerswap of secondary powers, maybe pending a mission arc of some sort.

I Think it is penalty enough to loose all your Slotting Hancers especially if you have IO's.

I would buy it even if the Perk Upgrade cost $15.00!

After all you are only able to choose 2 builds so exploits could only go so far, if at all.


Perhaps this could become unlockable content at a certain lvl, like 25, 30, 40, or yet another Perk of becoming lvl 50.

I think it would be cool to be able to get to 50 and have the chance to "Master" different powersets. It would add to the enjoyment of getting and playing my 50's.


**New Contact Dialog Box at 50** Congrats your character has reached lvl 50, a new contact is now available to further your abilities. Arc content and contact info text inserted into pop up tab.


Like i said i would be happy to even pay for such an option. This idea could rake in yet more cash, or much needed cash because it seems that not only is the content lacking at 50 but players are becoming.....distant from COX more and more.

Please incorporate this!!!
