Item Rack type function?

I just giggled loud enough my secretary asked me if I had done my evil deed of the day.

I already have 3 bags full of tanking, DPS, healing, and sometimes resist gear (which will sometimes fill up another 1-2 bags).

You're one bag short with that ammo, for sure. But you only have one set of gear. :)

every class is low on bag space. The only two classes I don't seem to have issues with is my rogue and mage. Mages use to be bad before the table as I would always try and carry 300 plus food and water to hand out but it wasn't that bad as if i really needed to destroying summoned items didn't make me think twice. Hunters weren't that bad either as I found all the greys I was collecting never out paced freeing up space from using ammo. If they do add some sort of item rack like ui built in and it stores all your gear for you without using bag space I hope they do something about ammo and soul shards. Maybe the legendary bow will be the new way of dealing with ammo pouches and what not.

And back on topic. I can see every class using 2 spec even with out the standard pve/pvp spesc. You might want to be a survival hunter but then another one gets slotted so you swap to BM or something. CoH/DS would be a great combo for PVE healing priests. Even mages would love to have a quick respec from fire for al'ar. Man now that I think about it I hope its harder then just hearting back and hitting the trainer.

I definately like the idea above about being able to swap specs when you know that your pet is going to die a horrible, quick death.

For me, it would also be nice to switch between EW/TSA and FI based on group comp. Lotsa magic damage in my raids.

Determining when you can make use of this multi-spec ability is going to be a big deal. If you can do it mid-instance, that is going to create some very interesting advantages that allow folks to tailor a raid on the fly per encounter.

For instance in EARLY KZ runs, having 3 tanks for Moroes was kind of helpful, but certainly not optimal for the rest of the run. Feral druids became a very valued class to have due their ability to change gear and thus focus.

With the new talent change, now a lot of classes could accomplish similar things. Want 2 tanks for Attuman, great that warrior and pally go Prot. Only need one tank for Curator, one stays Prot the other goes Ret/Arms/Fury. Or hell, need a trash clearing tank, let the paladin go Prot, but when you need a warrior for something like spell reflect, they swap places.

Given that 10 man raiding is about to become a much more visible center piece to WOW, I can easily see Blizzard trying to accomodate the people who this content is focused at, by making it easier for them to get the right mix of classes for the right encounters.

Edit: Oh and regards to my Hunter, I will probably pick 2 flavors of SV, one for pure DPS, and one for Utility.

What I am curious about though is how will pets handle this two talent switch. With BM 51 point talent being a bonus 5 points, will Pets need to have 2 "specs" also, 1 for wheny ou have those extra 5 points and 1 without?

I saw something that they're looking at allowing you to do it when you're out of combat. But that they're definitely trying to determine the cost first.

I'd be really curious what would happen if you have an exotic pet that you tamed in the BM spec. What would happen if you changed to a marksman specced and no longer had the talent active. Would you still be able to use the pet? What about pet talents. Where would the extra points go to?
