Job Personalization: Can I Have It?

[Shurrikhan]

I'd like to see this, but the issue real issue isn't even forum-spec homogeneity - it's fight homogeneity paired with the ability to change specializations. If one spec works best for most fights, we use that spec. If we can swap specs for each fight, we use the optimal spec for each fight (likely holding stacks of 99 of whatever items allows us to swap them, or if allowed only 1 such item at a time, returning to town every other Alex floor). Until there's content that can actually invite useful ingenuity through personalized specs (objectively and especially subjectively), they're not going to be that fun or personal.

Again, don't get me wrong, I love customization. I love using specs of some 71 well-thought talent points that others say is inferior and then blowing their dps per ilvl out of the water with it. But it is expensive, and frankly our fight diversity is fair bit less than where that 71-point talent system came from, and even it really only left about 5 to 8 real choices per class, with a grand maximum of 3 per talent tree.
