I would probably use it but I think spec is so trivialized in this game now. I'd rather 1 spec... it's enough to be able to switch out talents and glyphs all the time.

Nope. Triple spec = triple gear grind. Ain't doing it.

How is bagspace a problem? I currentyly have 2 complete sets of gear for my druid including buff food and other essentials (profession-items etc)
IM running with 2x22slot and 2x24slot and I have 40+ slots of free bag space atm.
I could easily clear up more slots if i removed gems etc from my bags and put them in the bank or whatever.
3 sets of gear is no problem if you get atleast get all 22-slot bags which arent expensive at all.

Dont know if this is serious but im guessing it isnt.... anyways, noone is forcing you to get 3 different sets of gear.
If you dont want to use the third spec, dont
yes. I was serious and just answering the question. I despise the gear grind and dont even dual spec now. Three specs is out of
the question as much as I like all shaman specs.
Now if the gear itemization attributes dynamically changed when you switched specs then I would be all in. agi=int, hit/exp=spirit. etc,etc
But I guess thats off-topic and another thread entirely.

Yes, and I'm a big supporter of the idea. Right now I'm Elemental/Enhancement, because that's simply the role I love to play (and we already have a Resto Shaman). Having Resto as a third spec would allow me to valor cap as a Healer, or chase the Healer satchels that have been up for the past month. It would give me another gearset to collect, making me do some extra LFRs.
All in all, with the dual system we have now, and all classes but 1 having 3 specs, I see no reason not to allow us to swap to all 3 specs when we feel like it. There's no rational reason to leave it out, other than either aggravating people by having them re-spec their offspec all the time, or either disallowing players to play their beloved class to its fullest.
There's no such thing as deep character customization in WoW, which was the argument against re-specs/multiple specs in almost every cRPG.
The added flexibility and quality of life would, by far, outweigh the elitist remarks of "AMG we need 1 spec, I gots 999.999 gold I need to burn!".
List me those 'horrendous drawbacks'. You haven't listed anything. At all.
Lack of bag space is an almost comical counter argument. Just takes some minor bag management on your part. People learning to play a third spec they don't know? Hardly a negative. There's nothing wrong with people getting more accustomed to the different roles of their class.
Oh yeah, it's enough to portal to town to re-spec, re-glyph, re-talent on an encounter-to-encounter basis, or whenever you feel like playing something else for a short period of time.
The added inconvenience really adds to the fun, right?
Getting gear aggravates you? What did you think when signing up for this loot-based game? The entire longevity of the game is based on loot, loot and loot. I've yet to see any guild that simply quits after a raid clear because "they've seen the content".

I would do it, it's not a huge deal since talents are so easy to change on teh fly now but it would be nice to be able to play all 3 specs without returning to a trainer, switching where appropriate and stuff.
Triple spec isn't needed, but it would be nice if it would remind my destro keybinds/button placements if i switched it to demo and back

I find it weird people would have multiple of the same spec with the new system. It's a few books to change yourself back, doesn't require any movement whatsoever.
Sure you don't need it.. Oh wait, let's say your guild 3 heals and 2 tank Gar'jal. Then clears up to Spirit Kings which you 2 heal and 1 tank.. Ten you have to wait till 2 people from your raid heart to Orgrimmar, go to trainers unlearn the specs, learn new ones, reassign their action bars and get back to the raid. You clear the boss quickly, and again you need your tank (That went DPS) to heart back to Org, go to trainer, respec, reasing the bars and go back.....
Dual spec sure is not helpful in those situations..
I could agree with you only if we got the ablity to switch specs on the fly while in the dungeon/raid with all the bars settings "remembered" through respecs (I know you can achieve it via addons but you shouldn't need everyone in your raid to have them)..
With the current make up of the talent system there is no real need for triple spec, dual yea, triple no.
If you chose to get gear for a third (shammys for example) the 66 gold sink to change isn't that huge when you finally decide to use it. Esp. when the amount of free gold for dailies is insane.
this would save me allllot of money!!
Current ret and have a Holy/Prot offspec (paying a respec/glyphs/talents when i dont have much time, aswell as swapping action bars/Vuhdo) is a real pain. But you gotta do what you gotta do. Also, this isnt for capping etc. this is for a raidgroup, recruiting isnt very easy!
Much rather they just added a summonable trainer through the guild perks rather than anything else.
That way, Gold sink still there and the time needed to go back to respecc removed.
Add a 6 or so hour cooldown to the trainer, and make it usable only by GM and people of his or her choice.
And before people say it, no, I sincerely doubt this would cause people to respecc between fights in raids, because there simply is no reason to do it.
The current Talent system does not require you to go to a trainer in order to do it, and it would not cause people to switch between say: Resto > Balance between fights, as that is was Dual specc is there for.
If people want to switch talents or glyphs, you already have items to do that on the fly, which also are relatively cheap to purchase. (Though people seem to forget this, and use the more expensive way anyway)
Triple specc switching is baseless to add, except for the only class in the game with 4 talent specializations: Druid.

It would be awesome if they added something like this but it would benefit classes such as priests more than shaman. It is annoying that I either have to keep constantly respecing or be forced to do dailies as a healing spec on my priest. Since some fights are better as holy than disc etc.
eh? sure il amuse myself with a 3rd spec..my 3rd spec would also be elemental lol.
