Ok lets make some quick calculation, this is all base if you did all the misson and bonus (so Protector title for all campaines)at lvl 20

Tyria: 25+(2000x25+500000)15000 = 25+100000/15000=25+6+10000

So for tyria you get 31 skill points and an extra 10k of exp

Cantha: 3x 13 + (13x4500/15000) = 36 + 58500/15000 = 36+3 +13500

In cantha you get 39 skill points and a extra 13.5k if exp

Elona:3x20 + (20x4500/15000) = 60 + 90000/15000 = 60+6

In Elona you get 66 skill points in total

As you can see, Tyria with the most misson gets the less skill points for the completion of them. To make it a bit more even with the other campaingnes, either add a skill point for completion of bonus or replace the 1k exp for completing the bonus with a skill point

1k exp + skill point:

25 x 2 + 6 +10k exp = 56 skill points and 10k extra exp

Replace 1k xp bonus with skill points:

25000+50000 +25x2 = 75000/15000 +50= 50 +5 = 55 skill points

As you guys can see this would bring Tyria up too par in Misson reward, and either way, Elona would still give more reward.

Us search button and did not found anything.

And while were under the misson reward, give the exp and skill point reward on cantha tutorial island to foreigne character, did it the other day with my warrior and I did not receive anything. Did the tutrial Island misson in Elona and I got the reward there.

I believe you have forgotten about the 51,000 experience reward for defeating the Doppleganger, which means you're going to need to rework those Tyrian calculations.

I have already done that, each misson gets you 1k of exp for completing the misson and the bonus. Theres 25misson, hence 50k of exp. The doppledganger also give an extra 50k of exp for beating, so rougly if you get misson/bonus on first atempt for the doppleganger you get 52k of exp. 100k of exp is calculated at 6 skill points and 10k of extra exp.

In other words, the doppleganger is considerd a misson and gives a nice extra 50k of exp

But you also have to look at how much experience and free skills you get from Tyria by doing the side quests, that is why you don't need the 30+ skill points is that you get a boatload of skills for free. If you play only for the missions and skip the quests, what's the point in playing?

As well I have 150-200 skill points on one of my chars that I have 'no use' for. I buy and cap as needed but I get 'free' points from post lvl 20 leveling often enough that I'll never be able to spend them all....So giving even more skill points is more or less 'pointless' as by the time you get to the final mission you should have no issues having enough skill points to get what ever you want. But maybe I'm just playing the game 'wrong'....

I wouldn't say you are playing it wrong. Not everyone plays like you do though. I have a monk that has 3.8 million xp and has the caps for 290 elites(260 capped and 30 caps purchased). He has spent skill points on non-elites as desired. He has roughly 70 skill points left. I could spend them all and not have every skill in the game.

It is pretty hard to have too many skill points for some people. If I do purchase all the points I need for every skill in the game (so far) I'll want some points in reserve for chapter 4.

To the OP. I can see how you might think that the skill point reward system is not equitable but the slower pace of Prophecies allows you adequate time to gather points between missions.

I'd have to agree that the free skills as quest rewards makes up for the difference and things are fine as-is.
