Simple query about freespec

First, a brief introduction: I'm a new player. I played on trial accounts for a couple of months until I got the hang of things, then subscribed my original trial account (which had all the characters I liked on it). Now my mains (Elec/Inv Brute, Robotics/SS MM, St/St Tanker, and a CoA Crab, all on Protector) are all in the 20s, and I'm having a blast.

However, since it was my original account and my original characters, some of their builds are less-than-brilliant. I subscribed shortly before i18, though, so I do have a freespec available.

Anyway, the actual question: do I have one freespec for the whole account, or one per character? I've gotten the impression that it's the latter, but I can't find confirmation anywhere.

Thanks.

One per character

One per character.

Freespecs can be used with the /respec command, but many other respecs actually involve going to the person who handles these things [Jack Wolfe in Galaxy, heroside; don't know villainside] and clicking on them.

You also have a second build available- although that requires you to buy all new enhancements to fill it up. A respec only works on your current build.

Thanks for the info. I actually managed to mess up BOTH builds of one of my characters, which is why I asked about the respec.

Off to get rid of the Jump pool on my poor Stone/Stone Tanker and get Stamina on him....

Thanks again!

If you are low level, there are also dual builds that are like a respec that you dont keep enhancements with.

We get free spec's pretty regularily, typically every issue which is 3-4 times a year.

I do tend to save free specs until close to the next issues release which I was you might want to look at dual build depending on what you have already slotted with your character.
