I need a confirmation from an admin on Forced Re-Spec (Module 3)

We all know what happened when module 2 went live, most of us were forced to re-spec against our will.

So will this happen in Mod3 too? Should I take screenshots of my builds on all my accounts before this happens?

I need an ACCURATE response from an admin, not "Maybe" "I don't know" "Probably not, might happen

    Chances are: they won't say until at least a week before it goes live or so. There is a lot of time before module 3 goes live, so don't worry about it at the moment.

    In the past when a class gets a new Paragon path they get a respec token always. So I would say yes for HR 99% sure. Other class I doubt it.

    Edit: Sorry miss read force for free. Probably go by Dardove vv

    If feats change location for your class (like what happened for GWF and DC), you will get a forced respec. Otherwise you will get either the standard free respec or no respec.

    If any feat/power changes they should give us a respec and this will most likely be the case.

    Seriously? you don't know what builds you have?

    Oh and i remember we got a "free respec" token last time and we had to activate it so when you log after the patch you won't lose your mindless copy/pasted build.

    I have 12 accounts, I don't keep up with every account, my builds are perfect for me, I don't want to change the slightest thing.

    How do you know? they give us a free respec because some powers/feats will change or be completely redesign
    Still it's not like you have many options right now, if you made those builds you know the reason for choosing the specific feats and it's impossible to forget them
    Plus i think you're the only with having a problem with a free respec

    The forced feat respec on DCs and GWFs not only prevented a build-breaking bug related to the rearrangement of feats, but allowed players to re-do their builds (featwise) as they saw fit based on those changes. There was plenty of warning that it was coming provided people were actually keeping up with the proposed changes and patch notes from preview.

    Free full respecs were a separate handout at the same time.

    I would respectfully suggest that if you have so many characters that you can't remember how you built them, but you think they are "perfect", then you should probably document them in some fashion in case stuff happens, or you ever do decide that a particular power or feat is no longer working for you but that you'd mostly prefer to keep everything else the same.

    I got bad news for you. The module will force you to respec if they moved anything in that class from its original location, and, get this, I will guarantee that even the slightest things will change.

    ALL of your characters will, at least slightly be changed because guess what, power has been reworked. 100% of the characters that use power will behave differently.

    sorry that I had to tell you that they will change, I know that a module release is hard to understand that changes are made at their release, but you cannot even attempt to keep all your characters from changing slightly.

    if you want, you can give me your enchants before you rage quit.

    Here's an update on this. Right now, they're still working on tweaking powers and numbers. Again, this is still a work in progress and isn't a confirmation! From what I've seen, HRs and GWFs are seeing some major changes so those characters may be get respec-ed. If I hear anything about other classes or any further changes, I'll let you know.

    Rage quitting? That's not me. This game is my first and last MMO, it's pretty sick tbh. Add in a few lacking features and it'll be even more great.

    I'm sure they have a window they are aiming at but they don't want to give a set date as that locks them into a fixed point and they want the flexibilty of moving it a week if there is a major issue discovered at the last minute.

    The "Nobody even knows" was referring to the player base.
