Double talents allows a player to have two full trees on one character and be able to switch between the trees for varying game play. It is available with purchaser reward level 4 (title of Eyrda Lord, which requires you to spend $100 on the game).
"Switch Talent" button opens up the 2nd talent tree option where you place your points all over again.
Once you have attained the status of Eyrda Lord, you will then have access to double talents by hitting N and going to your talent tree. In the bottom left corner you will see a button called switch talents. You will notice that in order to unlock the feature itself, you must make a one-time payment of 5 diamonds in gold coins, which is a very hefty price. However, the feature itself is very much worth every last copper.
Upon purchasing the feature and activating it, you will be given a whole new set of talent points (according to your level) and you now have the power to allocate the newly acquired set of points in order to use however you like. With the new set of points, you can set up another set of talents which you can dedicate to PvE and/or PvP, depending on what you’d like to do. In addition, it gives you that nice feeling of being able to play two trees if you ever were in the situation of having to pick between two very favorable ones.
Just like everything else in the game, this feature has its cons. The first big drawback to the feature is of course the fact that it costs A LOT to purchase the feature in the first place: purchaser rewards level 4, and 5 diamonds in gold coins. The second potential drawback, which you can ignore if you’re the patient type, is that there is an hour cool-down upon switching from one set of talents to the other. It is implemented so that people can’t abuse the feature and switch at will. However you can bypass the cool-down time for a fee of 5 gold coins, per bypass.
The third and final major drawback is that if the two talent trees are very different, you may require another set of gear to fit each tree, which involves a great investment of time (and gold coins if you like shopping in the Auction House). For example, take the bard and mage. Both classes have trees that scale off different masteries (bard has wind, water, and light while mage has fire, wind, and water) so you would have to invest in another offhand, potentially invest in another set of gear, and money on additional mastery training, which can be obtained through the Blademaster Quest. But there are also trees that can work well with the double talents if the class only scales off two different set of masteries such as the vampire (fire and dark) or warrior (physical and wind).
