There should be a button to save your current specialization to a slot. Then another button to reload that custom spec from a slot.

For example: As an Elementalist you could save a dps spec as Fire/Water/Air. Then with a push of a button you could load Earth/Arcane/Water and go into healing mode.

Similarly, the Equipment screen should be able to save and load gearsets so a player could switch all their gear and accessories on the fly by pressing a loading button and selecting the loadout they want instead of having to manually change each piece of gear. You can’t double click a ring or earing to instant slot it because there are two slots. The game’s AI doesn’t know slot 1 and slot 2.

This is one of those things where I hear it suggested a lot, but I’m not sure it is even needed. Changing your build and gear isn’t some big to-do. It is the mildest of inconveniences. Actually, I wouldn’t call it an inconvenience, because there is no barrier between wanting to change your build and changing your build.

Swapping between builds is very fast. The specializations are just a few button clicks, and it is done. There isn’t enough of a build system that a preset would be required. The gear is pretty fast two, as everything except your weapon swap and one set of earrings and rings can be changed just by double-clicking them in your inventory. If I want to change my build, it doesn’t even take me 30 seconds.

I’m not sure the feature is needed. It’s like making a robot to grab a beer for you. Yes, it is convenient, but all it does is save you the trouble of standing up, and grabbing a beer.

I don’t have opinions. I only have facts I can’t adequately prove.
