The Night Fall Preview Event has confirmed the functionalities of the "K" "Skills & Attributes" window.

The ability to change our secondary professions without having to go through any loading screens is confirmed.

I hereby express my utmost gratitude to ANET.

ANET, thank you for listening.

Commentary
With reference to these 2 threads:
01-30-2006 | Kai Nui | Final Straw On Secondary
05-10-2006 | Lord Pharoah | Profession Changer in Guild Hall, Change 2nd Profession on "Hero window" [H]

Can we finally have a similiar function when Night Fall is released?

With the original 6 Core Professions, plus 2 Factions Professions, plus 2 more Night Fall Professions, that would be a total of 10 different Professions.

Please do not make us map zone that many times when we need to change our secondary Professions.

The least they can do is to provide a Profession Changer in the Guild Hall. I don't care if it costs 100,000 gold, I am definitely getting one for my Guild Hall.

Of course, it would best if they just let us change our secondary Profession via the Hero Menu [H]

=======================

Proposed new features:
1. Profession Changer in Guild Hall
- PvP-only characters can change freely
- PvE characters can only change if they unlocked it

2. Change Profession through Hero Window [H]
- PvP-only characters can change freely
- PvE characters can only change if they unlocked it, plus
- They completed various special profession quests in each chapter

=======================

You like either one or both of the above mentioned features to be included in the release of Night Fall.

While we're on the subject of things in the [H] window, I'll repost a thread I made a while back that got no negative feedback but was never taken into consideration. Button in [H] Window to reset stats to 0.
/signed to change profession/stats in H window.

obviously restrictions will need to be in place for such a thinglike opening them up first and being lvl 20.

/signed, hate mapping all over to change my profession, or paying 500 gold each time.

Saphatorael · Jul 23, 2006, 07:01 PM // 19:01

/signed and @Nate, it's a one-time 'fee', after you've changed to one particular secondary once, you won't need to pay again to change to that.

Would love to have it on the Hero screen!!! Time you map all over the place and get back, your lost favor

i think they should re-instate the -path quests... i.e. Monk's Path, Warrior's Path, etc etc... and include those that you have already achieved for free at a Profession changer. If you haven't achieved any, then you must pay 500gp to change...

to include a profession selector or attribute clear in [H]

to include a profession changer in Guild Hall.

Have you not played factions? You can change ur 2nd proffesion in no time at Senji's Corner. Its not even 1 minute to do that. IDK why all of you are complaining. Although I would like to have more in certain areas that are past Ascention (Droknar's).

I don't think having a profession changer in Guild Hall is a good idea. Cuz then the little lvl 2's will be switching all the time.

/notsigned Profession changer in Guild Hall

I do think however that changing in the Hero window could be a good idea(only if you've been ascended, done the quests to do so...(Profecies) or gotten to Senji's corner(Factions) You would also have to pay either each time to change it, or have like a one time fee of say....1 platinum, that sounds fair to the peeps that always are changing, and also doesn't effect peeps that don't change soo often

/signed Profession changer in Hero window

ChuckNorrispwns · Jul 23, 2006, 10:14 PM // 22:14

/Signed for both

@ Jin - It is a good idea, the mapping back and forth on ships is frustrating, and you would have to unlock either that crystal desert place, Senji's, or the new place in NF if they dont do this.

Maybe it should cost 200Gp or something to be able to change for the first time on each new secondary.

/signed for profession changer in [H]

but of course there has to be prerequisites such as ascending and being level 20 etc.

Trylo · Jul 23, 2006, 11:36 PM // 23:36

i dont mind the H thing BUT

Guild Halls cator to all versions of the game, the same guild hall. Proph. only can receive Kurz/Lux/Imperial/monastery guilds. No that is not the main point. Since factions also has the exact same guilds, having a proffesion NPC in the guild hall would allow a factions only person to go to the guild hall and switch to a Nightfall only secondary without paying the $50. Therefore, anet losing money. And i dont think they are gunna switch the battle isles any time soon, because everyone can always get to them, no matter what expansion.

Im too lazy to do the missions to change in desert and dont really like tohe senji's corner paying to change thing...although it is easier.

So very /signed

omny · Jul 23, 2006, 11:54 PM // 23:54

/Signed, IF only profs unlocked at Senji's or xxxxxx's path quests are available. Or you could make people have to unlock them all to be able to change in GH.
OR, 500gp to unlock (like @ Senji's), but prerequisite of level 20.
