We need a quick character rebuild

Path of Exile 2 is about builds.

We want to test different things, change weapons, skills, and gear. But right now, completely rebuilding a character's build takes a lot of time and gold.
Why charge gold for rebuilding at all?

If i want to transfer skill stones and equipment to another character, it also takes a lot of time.

And changing the ascendancys requires too much time for runs to Chaos and Sekhem


Solutions:

1. Presets
Create presets for quick build changes.
Preset combinations of skill gems, passive points, and gear.
One click—and the entire build changes.
And don't impose a penalty for this. Just let people play their game.
Similar mechanics are well implemented in Remnant 2

2. Quick change of unlocked ascendancys
Make it possible to switch ascendancys without completing the Sekhem/Chaos Trial. Affter the player has unlocked all 2 or 3 Ascensions for a character, make it possible to switch them without completing them again.

If there were no penalty for respeccing, I wouldn’t feel forced to watch a guide beforehand to avoid getting stuck with no gold left.

Going in blind, making mistakes, and learning from them is far more enjoyable than following a preplanned path that holds no surprises.

If there were no penalty for respeccing, I’d be more inclined to pursue creative build ideas without worrying about whether they’ll succeed.

I really can’t stress enough how much I dislike the idea of punishing players for experimenting.

And before anyone points out the obvious, I understand that if I had endless time, I could just reroll a new character. But replaying multiple acts because I took a wrong turn on the passive tree isn’t fun, just like endlessly farming rares to sell for gold isn’t fun either.

I think this is your problem. Most people see "path of exile" in the title and assume it is about builds, but the devs clearly do not believe this. Otherwise you wouldn't be punished severely for experimenting. Or be shoe-horned into playing specific skills just to function as a builder/spender build.
