What are respecs and how do they work?

More info you can serach on (http://support.darkageofcamelot.com/cgi-bin/support.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=fOBrmXWg&p_lva=030109-000000&p_refno=030605-000000&p_created=1054833358&p_sp=cF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTgmcF9zZWFyY2hfd GV4dD1yZXNwZWMmcF9zZWFyY2hfdHlwZT0zJnBfY2F0X2x2bDE 9fmFueX4mcF9jYXRfbHZsMj1_YW55fiZwX3NvcnRfYnk9ZGZsd CZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_li=)


As of versions 1.51 and 1.52, players have the ability to “respec” their characters in certain ways, at certain times. A “respec” allows you to reset and change elements of how your character uses specialization points (“spec points”) or Realm Abilities (“RAs”). There are different types of respecs that allow you to change different elements of your character.





Skill Respecs


There are two types of skill respecs, full and single-line. A full respec resets ALL of your character’s spec points to zero (or the minimum required for your class) and gives you the equivalent number of spec points back to reassign as you see fit. A single-line respec allows you to “de-train” a single specialization, again returning the equivalent spec points to you for use as you see fit. This is explained in more detail below:



Full Respec

This resets ALL of your character's specializations to zero (or that spec's minimum allowed for your class), and gives you the equivalent number of spec points back to you so you can retrain however you see fit.



**Please note that respeccing is a one-time thing, and is irrevocable. You cannot do a full respec again, so be sure you know how you want to spec your character before you do this.**

NOTE: If your class has a "min spec level" on any specialization you will automatically be trained to the minimum required level. Your skill points will be spent automatically to raise your skill to the required level. Your available skill points will reflect the auto train appropriate to your level. You cannot go under your class minimum (based on your level) for those specializations.

To do a full respec, go to your trainer, select him, and type "/respec ALL". In order to facilitate faster re-training, you can now select a specialization at your trainer and click the train button mulitple times. Previously, you had to select the specialization you wanted to train in every time you trained in it. Now you can just select it once and click the "train" button multiple times.

Single-Line Respec

When a character reaches the levels of 20 and 40, they will gain the ability to "de-train" a specialization by doing a single-line respec. To do a single-line respec (when you reach level 20 or level 40), go to your trainer, select him, and type "/respec SKILL NAME". Please note that you cannot redo this - once you respec a skill, it is done.

Please note that you must perform a single-line respec within the level that you gain the ability to do so: at level 20 or level 40. You will not be able to "hold" spec-line respecs forever; you must use them at those specific levels.




Realm Ability Respecs


As of patch version 1.51, you have the ability to respec Realm Abilities. You may accomplish this by standing in front of your class trainer and typing /respec realm. Keep in mind that after you have done this, nothing changes on the existing training window. You will need to click on your trainer again, and then you will be able to redistribute your points as you see fit.

**You only get 2 Realm Ability respecs per character.**

When and how are respecs made available?



Aside from the initial 1.51 and 1.52 respecs, there are various times and ways that additional respecs are made available to players. At times, changes made to certain classes will warrant the issuing of “free” respecs to those classes. If a specialization line is weaker than it should be, and we tune it up/add spells or styles, there will be no "free" respec granted. If a specialization line is stronger than it should be, and we tune it down/remove anything, we may assign "free" respecs. This is a general rule of thumb and there are other cases where we may deem it necessary to issue additional “free” respecs.



Respecs can also be “earned” by defeating certain mobs that drop various “stones.” Turning these stones into specific NPCs will allow you to earn Realm Ability, Single-line or Full skill respecs – depending on the type of stone you have.
