#REDIRECT[[Power Respecification]]
== Overview ==
+
'''Respec''' = Respecification. <br>
+
To change your power choices and slotting.
+
 
+
*Respecs will ''NOT'' change your Archetype, Origin, or Primary and Secondary powersets.
+
*Respecs ''WILL'' allow you to choose from new power pools, just as you would leveling normally.
+
*During the respec, all currently slotted enhancements will become available to place in any power as well. Any unused enhancements will be sold back for Influence/Infamy, usually at typical sell back prices.
+
*First pick powers as though you were leveling. Then pick slots as though you were leveling.
+
 
+
There are two ways to acquire a respec. The proper term is similar to "You have been awarded a respec"
+
*Earn one from one of the Respec Trials. Completing a Trial after selecting a Respec as a reward will not allow you to select Respec again.
+
*Be given one from a Holiday or other event, most often during or after an Issue is released.
+
 
+
Currently there are 3 earned Respecs in CoH, and 2 in CoV. (3rd respec trial for CoV should come in Issue 7)
+
 
+
Current limits on saving respecs:
+
*If you earn it, it's yours. It will never go away.
+
*Free respecs can theoretically be infinite, however 99.99% of players can only have 1 free respec at a time. Any new free respec overwrites the old. <br>
+
Given the 3 earned and 1 free, you can have a total of 4 respecs saved up.
+
 
+
Respecs can be used in one of two ways depending on their type.
+
*Type /respec in the chat box. Uses any free respecs available, otherwise directs you to Jack Wolfe in Galaxy City (or the CoV equivalent).
+
*Visit Jacke Wolfe in Galaxy City (or CoV's equivalent). Uses any free or earned respec available. It is not documented whether he will default to earned ones or free ones.
+
 
+
== Q and A ==
+
'''What is a repsec?'''
+
*A proccess of selecting new powers and enhancement slots.
+
 
+
'''Where can I get one?'''
+
*Earn it. Or be given one.
+
 
+
'''So I can become a Blaster or Controller or anything I want?'''
+
*No. Your Archetype and Origin stay the same.
+
'''What about Electric instead of Archery?'''
+
*Nope. Primary and Secondary powersets stay the same.
+
 
+
'''Well what does change?'''
+
*The order in which you select powers from your Primary and Secondary. Even skip powers if wanted.
+
*You can also select new Power Pools.
+
 
+

+
'''I'm level 50, I've completed all 3 trials and used those respecs, now my powers are borked. I have no free respecs and the next issue is 4 months away. HELP!'''
+
*HAHA!
