I thought GWFs and HRs were getting a free respec with MOD3 due to the massive changes.

There is people who claim that we have the right to get a RT and there is people who claim that this is a f2p game and we have no right to complain about it since its the money from the zen store buyers what mantains the game. I dont think that we have the right to get a RT, of course this is up to the devs. But lets analize the bussiness that they have here:
This, as a f2p game, is suposed to have players who wont pay, players who will pay sometimes and players who will spend a lot of money in it. The good thing about having f2p players is that those players will bring other friends to play, and those friends may spend money, so the game is suposed to have a big playerbase with payers and non-payers in it, but EVERYONE contributes to the bussiness, either they are payers or not. So, that said, would we nice that every class that has suffered major changes gets a RT since we, most of non payers, cant afford to buy a RT. Now, yes, we dont need to buy it since we can spend AD to get ZEN, but lets be reasonable, the AD-ZEN or AD-Get items thing is already A LOT of grind and for many players, like me, sometimes quite boring, because you either farm daily quests or you wait for months to be able to purchase something with AD that will help you once you are lvl 60. I know that you can also invest in the AH and if you are good enough youll get AD, but tbh, that requires some time too, and you need a DECENT amount of AD to start having any relevant income. Its nice that we can buy ZEN by AD, I like that a lot, even tho you have to GRIND, many other games doesnt even give you the opportunity to get your hands into the cash shop if you dont pay, so thats very nice BUT we, players who decide to grind that much or have the patience, mostly dont pay because we cant, who wouldnt spend 5 or 10 dollars/euros to avoid weeks of grind? So, that said, since we, dont payers, also contribute to the game by creating a community and bringing new people to it, would be nice if we can get a free RT because we already have a lot to grind and is not so much to ask for.
Thanks for reading, sorry for my english if something's wrong and Im looking forward to see what you guys think, even moderators or devs.
HRs went live with a single paragon path as well, but have not received the same courtesy now that they have two paragons to choose from.

I agree with you on 100%
Yeah that's what bugs me.. At least they should tell us why
All this does is block people into keeping one set up all the time, regardless of the situation and limiting the powers specced and used, instead of giving options to the playerbase. There is so much time and work put into them and yet most poeple run the same 3-4 encounters and the same 2 at wills for each class, instead of being able to just retrain and pick a different tree to run.
I dont like it, it shouldnt be in the game this way.
And what if you multiple characters affected by the massive changes... then it does become quite expensive...
There is a bug for the time being with not getting the pack but it seems it's known to the developers already.
I know it's not free but it will still be cheaper than if you buy the token itself, assuming you are not going to save up AD and buy off the market.
This is supossed to be a free game, and dont come to me with "You can still get zen with astral diamonds so is still free" because thas totally wrong, unless you think that my time is not worth anything by the way, and i remember how they give away free coins in many other lesser complicated and changing situations so, why not this time...?
PD: Im forgetting the plus IVA we have to pay in other country's in addition to the the unfavorable exchange currency
This is simply wrong, you can defend your thoughts all you want and this will still being wrong...
Anyway its not the first time that "Buggers & Glitchers Neverworking Shadowmantle" pissed off the people with their actions
Cryptic has given free respecs when the other classes recieved new paragon paths and only a few changes here and there to skills. So why should we have to pay a single cent for it when this time the changes are a lot more drastic.
I can only hope that this lack of a respec was just an oversight by them, but if it was a concious decision on Cryptics part, this is not the way to encourage players to stay and spend money on the game if this shows how we will be treated down the line with future updates and changes to the game.
That and coupled with the enormous lag fests and bugs, I say gee, thanks cryptic!
i think it has all pretty much been said. 100% with you guys
Neverwinter players generally prefer damage roles over other roles.
Pathfinder is not a primary damage role.
Yet somehow you must buy zen in order to play a pathfinder.
Ergo it seems unlikely there are going to be a whole lot of Pathfinders in the near future.
Way to nickle and dime a whole paragon path into virtual nonexistence Cryptic. Not like HR's are in high demand anyway. Are we to believe that the new path is so awesome it must be paid for? I tested the paragon on Preview for a week, and I can tell you that it is not. It's fun, certainly, but it doesn't overshadow anything or even significantly alter the gameplay of the class.
There are going to be a whole lot of people that are really angry about this one for a whole lot of reasons. Maybe now we HR know our place; specifically the back of the bus.
Watch the next weekly sale include a retraining token.....
Then after that we'll get a Zen slap to the face purchase for free.
Leaving dead question marks everywhere
After the damage is done and Neverwinter gets yet another black eye at what should be a moment of triumph, I am sure people will get their free respecs. Just because that is about the dumbest thing that could happen. So count on it.

....
Other classes that have had paragon paths added have received the Free Respec. Hunter Rangers have not. There are some other threads about logging in and out to get the respec to appear, no dice on my end with that.
The good news is that I have had my quest to change between melee and ranged restarted on all of my characters, just not on the actual character that can change between melee and ranged!

Thats pretty much what I think that is gonna happen, didnt want to say it but... yeah, probably. Still, Im a bit worried since I dont wanna have to farm even more AD :I
