Im sorry to stay off topic here, but i totally agree with watcher.

Considering the amount of players on the server (130+ average at any one time) there is only a SMALL proportion with re-layered items, so to say that the majority of players has them is absurd, and to even suggest it effects the game play in terms of casual vs donation gamers is just as absurd considering the shard has been around for a couple of years now and is working perfectly fine.

I feel exactly like watcher does, players with "better" gear, if you want to call it that, get abused constantly by those who (im trying not to say suck at the game, cos u can easily re-layer without donation, but at the same time, you can be just as awesome without relayers) don't, when the FACT is if those moaning players got ahold of some godly items their whole perspective changes and they become the abused.

Not to mention the fact some people are workaholics, and so have less time to tirelessly farm for gold, making donation an easier option (and financially viable considering the amount they may (or may not) work).

PROGRESSION IS THE WAY OF RPG's, DON'T KNOCK IT, EMBRACE IT!!!

*phew* Rant over!

ON TOPIC: I have an alternative suggestion. As there would be no initial way (without additional coding to the already excellent levelling system) to determine what points are spent where...how about a 50ED deed that allows you to remove exactly x amount of SP from the weapon, like 10, 20 or 50 or something (working exactly the same way spending points does...but in reverse)

Off topic again..

I'm wondering how many leveled weapons are at 100 now. How many were made before the magery nerf a couple years ago. And how many new ones have been lvl'd since then.

Steve's idea seems plausible, would need some new gump to decide what to remove tho.
Could do a deed that remove a certain amount of stats. Got a wep that you tried some things on, 4% lower attack, 5% fireball, FC 1, and you dont like them. You can buy a deed that removes 3 stats and refunds the points used.
Or weapons come with a reset feature, each gets 2 or 3 resets, which refunds all points, but for only 1 skill. Same example as above applies.
Doesn't allow an entire respec of an item, just a way to abolish a few stats that you started to level and regretted a few days, weeks, months later. I put some stam leech on my back up hanzo bow, 10%. wish i did ML. Or a relayer that has obsolete stats due to other armor upgrades.

I stand by my earlier statement. At 5 million tokens, its easier to just start another weapon from scratch than to get together that many tokens to do a respec.
