I know that you can convert 15 BTs into 1 SP but why couldn't we do it the other way around? i.e. 1 SP-->15 BTs. I know that there are a lot of finished builds out there with 1 or 2 upgrades left on their AEQ and they used their final SPs to let's say, in the case of a passing QB, bring speed from 37-40 when you could use those SPs to add a couple of points to your primary.

The option could be on the Skill Point Assignment page. The only downside that I can see is all the whiners wanting their plateaued dots to not miss out. Though they probably just need a more absorbent tampon....

I prefer this to the VP-Bonus token suggestion, so +1.

Think harder. This suggestion is easy to exploit.

-1 to spending all your BT's in the beginning for SPs to push your mains and take advantage of ALGs only to come back at the end of the build to trade in SPs for AEQ upgrades

It's very easy to limit it, just make sure 1. You can only do this after plateau. 2. You can only transfer 2 max sp to bt.

Sound good to me...

Though, I kinda like the idea that an agent could choose to forgo the tired, albeit necessary, process of utilizing ALGs early in a dot's build and instead opt to maximize training on all Primary and Secondary atts.

Hell, I think this would cause the VPB to explode! As for a possible exploit, It's not like informed agents don't already have an advantage in dot-building. I'd venture to say that a majority of casual GLBers don't even mess with Training upgrades....plus think of how this would reinvigorate the temp. game bonus option.

Cookie Cutter Builds Be Damned!!!!

But either way, just the ability to max out your AEQ in the end without planning it like an Ocean's 11 bank heist would be nice.

there's been some math to show that trading BTs for SP early on to cap stuff faster, and then reversing it at the end of your career to get all your AEQ would net a significant increase in effective level (like well over 100 SP value to the builds)

that is, and always will be the main point against this.

and the reason I give it -1

Terrible post, just like all the other times. DB=DoucheBag

I`ll quote it again to reiterate that the exploit could be avoided by...
