Alternate build sets

[DistantFluxSA]

The need to constantly respec talents to go from gatherer to combat and back hasn't been fun, so I'd love to see alternate build sets, covering the following:

- Talents
- Gear
- Cards

That would allow players to switch easily from one build to another, while respeccing would remain useful for experimentation/theory-crafting.

I could see unlocking the first alternate build set for the class specialization, and then another for the sub-class, with maybe more via gems.

You don't need to constantly re-spec since you can just use some characters as dedicated gatherers.

Maybe once you get them to a certain level, but I'm not there yet.

[Geothermal1159]

Even at lower levels you can.
When you get like 4-5 characters there isn't much reason to not use at least 2 of them to be gatherers who only re-spec to do some power training then go back to gathering for the rest of the family.

You can just use the first 2-3 characters to unlock new stuff which then passively powers up the rest so that they can quickly power level without much effort while in the meantime contribute to the earlier characters in the pursuit in getting through stuff.

That hasn't been my experience. Combat is far more effective a leveling tool than gathering, and I instead gather short term to build up needed supplies, and do longer-term combat to get levels and talent points, as well as unlock areas. You -really- need those class levels, and you can't get them gathering (not in any kind of practical way).

Being able to swap back and forth without having to do a respec every time would be far more enjoyable for me.

+1 Having to swap out cards is particularly tedious.

If not full Build-sets, then at least Cards, for starters, will be neat!

Having swappable builds would be nice, cards and points. Reapplying them is tedious, currently I have to screen shot everything.

Even if the frequency of swapping was limited was limited in some way. Though tbh I think the whole talent reset potion thing is unnecessarily restrictive in a game like this anyways.

You absolutely need high level, dedicated characters with dedicated subclasses, with dedicated builds to gather the higher tier resources, two gathers doesn't cut it, that doesn't even cover all the subclasses.

I suppose if your characters are like level 300 it becomes unnecessary...
