well oviously we are all expecting to get increased sales with the new weapons.... but i have a feeling that we are gunna get no sales.... the devs stated that they want us to get used to the new system and put our skills where they want... so whats to stop all the combat players from buying the needed resources respecing to master WS making all their own weapons and some to sell then re-specing again back to combat. i hope the devs will only allow 1 re-spec and not over a period of time. or limit it to only combat affected professions. what does everyone else think about this?

i believe its a one off re-assignment of skill points - i dont think they would be able to keep changing when they wanted

They said something about perhaps letting us respec for a week or so to try out different combos. However, the respec only applies to skills affected in the CURB. WS does not apply. That said, its pretty far fetched to believe that all these players would pick up WS, search out the best resources, craft all the weapons themselves and then drop WS. Especially when they could be out trying all the new combat.
So I say itsnot going to happen. No worries.

This is the number one reason I'm not at all worried about this. Searching out those resources would be insanely difficult. To presume that any significant number of people would choose to spend that kind of money, and that kind of time, is unrealistic.
And that's assuming they can even find the resources for sale somewhere. I can't remember the last time I saw a good Irolunn for sale on Intrepid.
With only a week or so to do this (assuming it's even possible), I just can't see any significant number of people doing anything like this.

Think about it, you are combatant and deside to respec to WS and make all the uber wepons for free!!11
So you respec start crafting then you relise you need specific resources, so you search the vendors and find large stacks of resources not very cheap so you buy them. With out the benefit of being a WS you have no ide what is a good resource for what.
But you go ahead and after few mill spend on resources you make your self all the uber weapons you could ever want. Until you run into a WS's store and see the same wepons with beter stats and much cheaper than what you payed for the resources...

Think about this as well...
Only combat classes can respec.
By taking on WS aren't you devoting a bunch of SP's to non combat?
So next time you try to adjust wouldn't those be unrespecable? (What a word, sheesh.)

As far as I understand there is no official statment on this or there is ? Correct me if Im wrong.
I've read alot of thoughts and rumors here on forums, that they wont let us switch from WS or AS to any combat profs, and opposite. they wont let us to swith low level combat porf to higher level, and scouts wont be able to respec their sp to any other profs, the same with medics (docs + MCM).
But again its just a rumors, I dont belive rumors. So correct me.
