Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
I don't understand that post.
When starting a new character, you will get 3 respecs, one in normal, one in nightmare, one in hell and you can make use of them whenever you like, in any order. Characters who solved the Den quests before the reset will get a single respec in from hell Akara.

Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
I only played a bit 1.13a but no 1.13b. In 1.13b do you really get 1 respec per den of evil?
Notes on respecs for 1.13b:
- Respecialization is now possible! Completing the 'Den of Evil' quest
will now additionally reward 1 free respec which can be saved. Players
who have already completed this quest should receive 1 free respec in
Hell difficulty.
The wording is a bit weird, I think you only get 1 respec on hell difficulty now and that's it. (not counting the boss drops recipe) Anyone has a backup of 1.13a patch notes? I think it was more clear in 1.13a but i don't really remember.

Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
From what Ive learned, the respec resets all attribute and talent points.
You get 3 free respecs, 1 per den of evil quest done.
To gain more, you must cube together 4 different essences from Hell difficulty act bosses.
Duriel and andariel drops the same essence, and the remaining 3 act bosses drops their own each. Simply cube them together to create the token.

Really really good
I think this is a GREAT idea!! Really GREAT... I can play my game until level 50th and at that point I can "switch" to my final build! I think about some builds that require to save point till higher levels to be effective, but to do that you have an unplayable chars for early levels and need to be babysitted...
Really really good

Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
Unfortunately, the possibility of respecs opens up a whole new can of worms. I'm wondering if any bugs with it have been reported? Imagine, for instance, that respecs fail to give you back the skill points for Den of Evil/Radament/Izual, the life for Golden Bird, or the stat points for the Lam Esen Tome? And imagine if there's a bug that allows you to gain any of those rewards a second time, or an infinite number of times, for the cost of one respecialization?
Perhaps even Blizzard understands how devastating such bugs would be... but given their track record (like with the ethereal bug) there may yet be something weird in the new patch.

Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
Only possible issues with black tome and the skillpoint qs.
Cant see why golden bird might be a problem, since its a static health bonus of +20 life per difficulty.

Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
I really don't mind at all... I'm playing a 10 years old game... I'm impressed that their still making patch... and if it will be bugged... ok, **** happen!
Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
To be clear, new chars will get 1 respec for each Den in each difficulty
The confusing patch notes, as I read it, will apply only to NL/SP/Open chars that have already completed all 3 Den quests; they'll get one reset from Hell Akara.
As no chars on the new ladder, of course, will have already completed all 3 Dens before the patch goes live, it doesnt apply to them.

Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
I think the respec will take however given stat points and skill points you have put in and just gives them back. I tried it on the PTR with the den of evil. Was level 3 and put 2 skill pts + 1 den of evil skill pt into warmth. Respeced and gave all 3 back as well as stat points. I believe it'll do the same with stat points regarding lam esen tome.
As for the Golden Bird life, I think that is added on to your base HP (before vitality is calculated)... so lets say you have 100 hp base health and with vital you have 200 and with the Golden Bird potion 220...when you respec, you will have 120.
I'm not sure about this but I'm thinking it'll be okay.

*Note: I am a Software Engineer, so I have some expertise, but I have no knowledge of how their software works. I can only speak from my own experiences.
I certainly wouldn't rule out the possibility of bugs, but coding this shouldn't be that difficult. The database the game uses to save characters should have an easy time tracking which quests you've done. For instance, when you activate the respec, the game looks and sees that you are a level 30 character (29 skill points) and you've completed normal Den/Rad/Izual, so it gives you 32 skill points. It wouldn't reset those "flags" in the database, so I fail to see how this should be a problem. Anything is possible, but it seems unlikely.

Re: Question about 1.13 Respec
But why would it even need to distinguish between quest skill points and normal leveling? It simply takes all skill points that you have used(whether by quest or leveling) and give the equivalent amount of free skill points.
