    In a sci-fi world why shouldn't breed change be an option?...this is also likely to be an option heading into the future for AO.
    My god Means, I know I've been highly critical of this game as of the last couple months, but it's amazing how one bit of news can restore all hope I once had. Funny thing is, you may recall me asking you this question in one of the Q&A FWM's a couple months ago...I remember you said "maybe" to sex change, and something like "never" for breed change. I'm so glad to see you changed your position on that.

    Good to hear. Every breed being equally viable for every prof seems an impossible goal, but breed change removes the need for it IMHO.

    Wow big wait little content (sans the breed change). No new balance content so we'll be left bickering on forums without a clue.

    I should add that all credit and good karma for this addition should go to directly to Macrosun as making breed change work will *ahem* suck. This feature represents a similar amount of work to the entire mail system.

    Exclamation reply

    i think if the brred change is introduced .. it should only be allowed ONCE per toon .. if at all...
    i can understand this one time.. but in the future it should be severly limited.
    like put a lvl cap on it... say 100 or something.. and lose something to.. like 2 IP reset pts or something..

    u could also make it so newb island can change w/o restriction.. to give new players a chance to experiment

    Yeah I figured as much, no simple feat I imagine.

    Not that you really know at this point, but I figure it's likely going to require unequipping everything, full IPR, and full perk reset before changing? I can't imagine it working otherwise...

    Making an option to change breeds feels like nothing else but admiting you're unable/don't want to balance the game properly. The ultimate bandaid fix.

    breed perks change is cool.

    Breed change!?... but, but, but... I rerolled! *head explodes*

    *tries to breathe*

    Ok, ok... Troxxor would have been a stupid name for any breed other than atrox...

    If you tell me there's a one time name change too I think I might, I might....
