I was prot for 75ish lvls, before dual spec came out and while I could not be killed it was slow. On patch day I specd into Prot/Ret. Dailies and questing are way faster as ret and there is not a group quest outside of dungeons I couldn't solo as prot.<br /><br />I made 80 in no time and now that I raid if we don't need a tank I can drop into my ret set and gear and kill without having to sit out because we don't have room for another tank. <b>Best</b> <b>Wow</b> <b>Addition</b> <b>Ever.</b>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527089824014045335.post-90731837477161327582009-06-04T21:25:50.567-07:002009-06-04T21:25:50.567-07:00I absolutely love dual spec.

Being a priest, the ability to switch to shadow for questing and dailies and then switch back to heal raids and heroics is wonderful. <br /><br />It doesn't hurt that my guild leader considers my specs to be main spec/main spec as far as loot rolling is concerned, so I basically see a cloth drop and I roll. :)<br /><br />It also makes me happy right now, as I level my RAF druid, than I can spec Tree/Owlbear at 80, and my RAF buddy is gonna spec his shaman Resto/Enhancement. <br /><br />Happy Times.Misamanehttp://respecced.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527089824014045335.post-88541501854690532122009-06-04T14:28:02.713-07:002009-06-04T14:28:02.713-07:00It has basically been a waste of 1000g for me.

I think I have used it all of 3 times. I don't really enjoy ret, and even questing, I do more and can take more as prot. . .Fishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17653252976648480240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527089824014045335.post-83595011247719275872009-06-04T10:10:03.957-07:002009-06-04T10:10:03.957-07:00I had expected dual specs to cause more loot drama...I had expected dual specs to cause more loot drama than it has. I'm glad that so far people are civil when dealing with main spec versus off spec stuff.<br /><br />The downside to dual specs is that people aren't necessarily very good at their "other" spec. For some, it's because they just don't have enough practice in that other spec. For others it's a question of not having the right gear.<br /><br />An in-game friend of mine has long claimed that he can respec as needed (despite the cost) and fill the role of tank / dps / healer on either his Druid or Pally. But, he is only geared properly for the one he enjoys most. So, it has always been painful to allow him to respec on the spot. Our saving grace back then was the cost -- sometimes it was just not worth it.<br /><br />Now that dual specs are out the problem is worse. He no longer has to pay to respec, so now he does it freely. And he still doesn't have the right gear for the second spec. And...on top of that, he will still pay to respec to the third spec. Bless his heart, he means well. <br /><br />I haven't yet gotten dual spec fo my priest. I'm too lazy to dedicate the time to getting the +hit gear she'll need to go Shadow.MMO Playerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12333011902888881263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527089824014045335.post-87882982769036303952009-06-04T09:19:32.187-07:002009-06-04T09:19:32.187-07:00My goal has always been to have a tank, healer and...My goal has always been to have a tank, healer and DPS character that I can pull out as needed. Being able to dual spec my shaman as resto and elemental has just made it so I can do it with two characters instead of three.<br /><br />Being in a smaller guild where we sometimes have trouble getting healers or DPS (four of our regulars have the ability to tank so no problems there), it's made it easier for people to switch around as needed. It's a higher cost up front, but it saves a lot of time not needing to go respec.<br /><br />Most of our DPS people are using their second spec for PvP or setting up a secondary DPS spec for different situations. All of it is voluntary, since our guild doesn't make anyone run a particular spec.Copernicusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527089824014045335.post-72160120620840322962009-06-04T06:53:03.785-07:002009-06-04T06:53:03.785-07:00On my Paladin I regularly switch specs.

I can kill normal mobs faster as Ret, but I can kill group quests easier as Holy (specifically the dragon for the Threat from Above daily). <br /><br />My druid does 90% of his instances as a tree, but switches to Feral for 90% of his BGs (my tree gear is crap for PvP).<br /><br />My Warlock, though, hasn't switched specs in weeks. If I weren't rolling in gold, I would feel somewhat upset at the waste.Dorgolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12936803721440329897noreply@blogger.com
