Hey guys, i'm new here, and i was just wondering if there is any way to change your second class. Right now i'm an Elementalist/Warrior, didn't really mean to be a warrior : / and just wondering if there is any way to change it. Thanks.

Players soon not this BWE, but soon will have the opportunity to change secondary professions. In addition to the experimentation that you're allowed in Kingdom of Ascalon, where you can give every secondary profession a "trial run," you can now amend your character after you have reached Ascension. This means that a character into whom you've invested a goodly amount of time will be one that can be changed, rather than started anew. You don't need to recast, you can simply reconfigure by a method that is tied to the upper-level story of Guild Wars. It's like doing a re-spec, but better.

ooh that's cool. does that mean you can recast your char absolutely anything in the game? like after even maybe months or years of playing, you could still change your secondary class whereever?

yes

as to the first poster it doesnt matter since the character will be wiped and have to start over anyway when the game goes retail

from GW

The bottom line is that you could have a primary character who has experimented with all five available secondary professions. That character will likely have good stock of skills in each of those lines. In fact, that character could have every skill in each of the five available secondaries. The character then, in ways not yet to be revealed, will be able to shift to a different secondary and take advantage of a long history of roleplaying character development.

It's only a beta-character anyways so no need to go crazy....once the beta's over and the game's released you'll restart as a LvL 1 Elementalist I think...don't 100% know about 2nd class but I don't think you'll have one :P

you dont even have to be an ele. you char will be replaced with a place holder basicly to just save your name, and you will be able to add a dif hair sryle and any other of the new opions.

Don't forget this as well,.. once the game does come out, and you still do something to this effect, it won't be that detrimental to you to restart the character (delete and redo to undo mistake) if you happen to stick yourself with a bad permanent secondary in the beginning. Leveling won't be too much of a problem in general either way ( because it doesn't take all that long to do it), so if you don't want to hang onto that character until level 20 you won't have to. It'll just make "trial" stick out more in your mind the next time around and you will be less likely to make the same mistake. Besides, leveling that character is only the beginning of the game, then it really gets interesting after.
