I dont get as much time to play as I once did, and I came home today to see a new patch with respecs? Now I understand these are quite pricey if you buy them...but I have a 17 clr 1 pal that I have been wanting to remove the one level of paladin for 2 years.

If I buy a Lesser Heart of Wood +1 does that start me at level 1 and I have re level by adventuring to remove the one level of paladin.

or.....

Do I buy it click it and instant level back up to 18 (ala starting at level 4 now) and get to change my one level? And within 10 mins Im level 18 cleric and happy again

Any help to answering this question would be greatly appreciated. I really dont have time to relevel toons at this point in time..so losing my cleric back to level one would really stink.

Thanks!!
