== 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!
