Respec Issues

[Raging Nova]

So, I leveled an Arachnos Soldier to 50, went Bane on the first build with no issues.  Went to start a second build so that I could go Crab.  Went through the entire process and the respec failed.  It failed over and over again.  It finally took but it stopped at level 24 and kicked me out and I was stuck with Soldier abilities instead of the ones that I selected for Crab.  Now when I go to respec it only lets me go to level 24 before it finishes and nothing I select sticks or it fails outright.  I also have the green arrow up top showing that I need to level up but I've already done all that.  First time I've ever encountered this issue.  Has anyone else run into this situation before?

Not personally, I assume you've tried rebooting the PC?

Check your team tab, make sure you're not on a team.

 

Make sure you have trained up to 50. Not just got to 50.

 

Respec outside of an SG base.

 

Trying respec'ing another character. You don't have to complete it, just see if it's not an account issue.

 

All else fails, open a support ticket.

I've done all of that already.  I was finally able to respec my first build without it failing.  But the second build won't let me.  It is stuck at level "23" and won't let me go any farther.  I was leveling it up at the trainer the first time it bugged out.  Hopefully a GM will be able to get it sorted.

From my own recollection, when using a second build on a VEAT (at or above level 24) is that the first time you work the build (which is NOT a respec) you start without having access to the different career paths until you get to level 24, at which point the game forces you to respec that build. It is annoying, but I've never had an issue with it.

 

If for some reason you cannot do the (on the second build) respec, I suggest filling up your power picks and slots all the way to level 50 (on the new build) and then try the respec.

This is a common mistake that I have made.

I used to wonder about this, but then found out it only applies to more extensive bases.  I tend to make simple single room bases that don't have that many details and have never had an issue doing a respec in them.

Every time I've ever had an issue doing a respec inside a SG base it was because I had some sort of other window (e.g. base storage) open when I tried the respec. I'm convinced that the advice to "leave the base" is ultimately just removing the temptation/opportunity to have such other windows open.
