    Yes, but what if you just want to shuffle some points and not have to start over?

    I would think a LR would still be superior in the sense that it would take tomes into account you may not have had the first time around, it would also let you redistribute stat points should you wish that may also impact the number of skills you have.

    I get what your saying, but the option is already available so I really dont see the need for a more limited version, especially since unless it cost the same as a LR, they would lose out on sales, and if it cost the same, what would be the point?

    This idea is moderately appealing because I've a few skill points misspent here and there with some characters, while I was deciding whether Tumble was worthwhile, for example.

    If Turbine offered some reasonable means for such a clean up, I'd be interested.

    The same point it is to have extra bank slots of twenty spaces available for the same price as a new character slot with eighty spaces: convenience.

    I would even accept being able to shuffle one category with another one for a fee each time.

    Out of curiosity, how often do you see yourself needing to adjust skill points?

    Then you LR and set everything else the same as it was before, and just adjust those few points.

    If you're asking for an automated accountant to help you with the numbers, well, okay. That's different from what you asked for in the OP, though. Please say what you actually mean.

    Or maybe you mean that LR is too expensive, and you want a cheaper option to adjust only skill points? Again, please say what you actually mean.

    Well, I haven't ever used Reincarnation, but it was my understanding that you go back to level 1, with different abilities/stats/classes accessed by using different levels of it. I thought I was pretty clear in what I asked for: A way to reset skill points like enhancements and that if it was a pay only service I was good with that.

    And I think I might use it quite a bit as I like to use my Enhancements as more level appropriate and reset them to more useful configurations when I get better gear and higher level Feats. I'd like to be able to do that with skills too.

    Maybe we disagree about what 'like' means? As far as I'm concerned, Lesser Reincarnating is exactly like resetting enhancements in the relevant senses: When you reset enhancements, you start, and ten minutes later your enhancements are set differently. When you Lesser Reincarnate, you start, and ten minutes later your skill points are set differently. Granted, with LR you can modify OTHER things as well, but you can set anything the same as it was if you so desire. And, granted, there's more accounting involved in Lesser Reincarnating; gotta have your new version planned out in advance, lest you make a mistake.

    Are you asking for a difference of process? You want a different user interface? Though if you've never lesser reincarnated, I'm not sure what your basis for comparison is.
