as the title says,i didnt know what that was at first so i went ahead and rushed my character creation...
now, as a hunter at level 60,seeing that i have 25 Dex and 21 Wis only,feels kind of bad,i think it could have been more higher
does the retraining token lets you roll the dice again? or just reuse your ability points?

sigh...

    No. Despite people having asked many times there is no reroll token available for initial stat rolls. The only option is to reroll your character entirely.

    It's pretty negligible anyway. About 1% per point ABOVE 10.

    Gear matters sooooo much more than ability scores that ability scores are nearly worthless unlike in actual D&D.

    having 24 wisdom instead of 21 means 3% more crit chance and control resistance,these matter a LOT
    dice roll tokens should exist, i bet that 30%+ of the player database would need one

    Surprised they never have yet. Sounds like a good money grab as so many veterans would pay whatever cost to reroll.

    I certainly would cough up 1000 ZEN.

    It could be a better AD sink than the current egg event. But I don't mind if it costs Zen.

    Is it because they want you to buy character slots and simply remake a toon? If it costs 1000 ZEN I really doubt their 500 ZEN character slot business is going to get hurt. Plenty of people who make more characters not because they want to redo an old one, but to pile up leadership slaves.

    It is because it is not simple to implement.
    They either can not do it or are focusing on other higher priority features.

    Resorting to "they are just being greedy" everytime something is not done does get old. ;)

    would love to reroll my ability scores on my first rogue, if they introduced it even at 5k zen I wouldn't hesitate to buy it

    Beg to differ there.
    They've already got the rolling ability scores interface.
    So that would take 1 (ONE) single line of code to call that existing interface at the start of the respec.

    OP: What was your initial stat roll? You could redistribute the level-up stat points to help a bit...

    One does not mean another.

    Example, you choose your forum name, right? That means you should be able to change it, right?
    No. They can not change your forum name under any circumstances as it will literally make the system blow up.

    If you do not design certain features from the ground up the ability to set or choose it once does not mean it can be changed.
