Anarchy Online

Say for instance you decided to use SMG in the beginning, but have a change of heart around level 25 and get into Pistols. Can you reset your skill tree (meaning, take back the points you invested in that skill (SMG) and place them somewhere in your range template?

And since we are on the topic, how about the attributes as well?

Thanks Again..

There are IP resets available in the game...you get s specific number of individual skill resets (the number of which grows gradually as you level up your char). There is also currently a full IP reset available (1).  Any sort of skill reset requires you to strip down a char totally bare before being able to do IP resets so at later levels, the whole process can take a lot of time and effort.

See "C-30 Can you Rest your Skills?" in my Anarchy Online F.A.Q. thread in this forum.

C-30 Can you Rest your Skills?
When you start you'll be given some IPRs (Improvement Point Resets) and you get more at each TL. If you have the expansions then you'll have more IPRs to play with than fr00bs and can also buy them for credits at a terminal in the Hardware Dimension in Jobe Plaza (250 million creds is the base value) or for 50k VP at one of the LE shop terminals in the Tower Shops.

To reset a skill you first must stip off everything from the three tabs in your wear window (ctrl + 1). Next open your skills window ("U"), click the "i" icon in the top left corner of that window, select "reset skill" from the menu that pops up then click on the skill you want to rest in the skills window. When you do that a button will show up towards the bottom of the window with the number of remaining IPR noted beside it, click the button to reset that skill. Map Nav can't be reset and abilities generally can't be reset properly since to raise a skill very much at all you need to increase the related abilities as well.

After big game changes like expansions you may also get a single use "reset all skills" option as well which will reset everything including abilities but still not map nav (some abilities may not be fully reset if you have put some points in map nav). This is a limited time option FC gives us due to the changes that expansion brought us but you don't need that expansion to get the reset. Right now with LE it is possible they will offer another "reset all skills" reset later on (said they might do that before LE came out) but last I heard they have no plans to do so.
