I haven't seen this suggested before so I'm suggesting it. (Though I tend to suck at searching for stuff).

I think PvP characters should be allowed to change primary professions. I don't see anything wrong with doing this and it would be nice if I could save time remaking characters.

The only bad thing I see would be how it would be easier to get b-day presents through pvp characters.

What? That doesn't make any sense.

Every character class has a completely different set of hair and faces, and height, to choose from. How is your idea any more efficient than simply remaking the character which you basically have to do anyways?

Wtf? Just re-roll? it doesn't cost you anything...at all..

It takes 10 seconds to make a pvp char... does it matter how they look if you're honestly bothered about how long it takes?)

I actually agree with this, I hate having to delete the character, select "PvP character" (which only works about 50% of the time, for some reason), choose the campaign, profession, height, hair, face, name, and stuff.

With the suggestion, I would just press K, select a profession, and off I go. (I honestly don't care about hair, face or anything).

Maybe I'm just too lazy to spend like, 3 minutes rerolling a PvP character, but I think it's a 3 minutes poorly spent.

It takes 10 seconds, learn to save your templates and equip templates.

And how do they make the class change, AND the body/face/hair, AND the armor/runes/insignias?

I'll make a PvP Warrior with 80+20 armor and Superior Absorption, then change it to a Monk and keep that armor and rune?

REROLL, it isn't hard, it isn't long... unless you're an idiot.

You'd obviously lose your armor/rune/insignia stats, and have them replaced with one's profession specific, douche.

Then what's the point? It's quicker to re-roll....Douche.

It would save some I guess but is it really necessary? No.

They could 'possibly' remove the armor/rune/insignia, but how do you change the appearance? If you see a Monk running at you with a Sword and Shield in HA, do you assume it has Warrior armor, runes, insignias, attributes, and skills? No, you assume its a stupid Monk. Next thing you know it uses Dragon Slash on you, and then rezes its teammate with Death Pact Signet. UH OH, that wasn't a Monk, it just looked like one.

This is a stupid idea douche.

Uhh... you would lose your appearance, and probably get a random one of the profession you were switching to.

I love how people hate saving time.

Not to hate, but if you're really into "saving time", think of the time it would take programmers to do all of this. The result of all of that time: a minute or two that a player might save.

Just to put it in perspective.

PVP chars are extremely easy to reroll. What's the point of this, when you'd have to go through all the steps of rerolling anyway (ie change appearance, armor, weps, whatever) I don't see how this saves any time at all?
