Default Simple Idea: Cap an Elite and get a skill point

Basically. When you cap an elite, you gain XP as well as a Skill Point that you can use to cap the next elite.

Theres just so much elites to capture. Gotcha catch em all.

Agree/Disagree

*yargh! i typoed the subject! >.<

Do some basic FoW runs, complete some quests and you'll get skillpoints enuff.

I still have 100+ left

This doesn't make any sense to me... to me it would be more logical to just go ahead and not take a skill point to get one... but that would be a bit much I feel.

Skill points are a constant issue for me. I'd be glad to spend 500k getting all the skills for my warrior, but I'm constantly out of skill points.

/notsigned, I would usually pull enough xp between two caps to get a skill point while working on my skill hunter title, 5000xp a cap is plenty.

What is the point of skill points if using one gives you one?

On the character I am trying to get maxed Skill Hunter with, I have Advanced Skill Hunter and over 80 skill points left.

On my other characters that I only cap important elites with I have over 200 skill points.

Clever. +1 to Arcanis.

Regarding the topic, I think a better version of the idea is for every five Elite caps, you get one skill point back.

MDeshame: Troll troll go away, troll again another day.

Arcanis: Thanks for the tip

I never posted that skill points go obselete. Just for CAPPING ELITES. Buying regular skills would still use it up.

You already get 5k xp per cap, 3 caps will get you AT LEAST one skill point

Doesn't work with quests, I've tried that - wouldn't it be the same for skills? Can't remember if I tried that.
