Guild Wars 2

After running every zone I find myself with 189 points. I went back and counted all the skill points available on the known zone maps and it also added up to 189. I have been trying to do some research on this and found a post that you would also get a point every 254,000 exp after level 80. That does not seem to be the case as I have done that 30 times over since hitting 80. Is there a hidden zone ? Is there another way to bring your skill points total up to 200 ? The world map totals show a possible 202 points. Any help would be quite appreciated.

You continue to gain “levels” after 80 as seen on your xp bar. Every time it fills you gain another skill point.

Might be some hiding in WvW.

As Jsmooth said, the skill challenges you are missing are found from WvWvW-maps. Instructions of how to get to those maps and more are found from the following link: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World_versus_World.

However, you may need to queue to get to those maps for a while depending on what server you are playing at (active www-server) and the time of a day you try to get there.

@ Bumppis….@ JSmooth…….Ty for the information on the WvW maps. @Rainu As I have stated in my post I have maxed that experience bar at least 30 times. I should have already more skill points than the 189 that shows for zones. I have not seen any skill points from levelling afdter 80. I have not been active in PvP so I will take a look out there.

Well, Rainu wasn’t wrong in what he explained. The number of skill points shown for the zones only include the skill challenges you have completed to get a skill point, not the overal skill points you have. You can see the skill points you currently have from the Hero panel. I hope this clears things up.

Some useful links to hopefully explain these things even better:

3 per Borderland and 4 for the Eternal Battlegrounds, so there is your discrepancy from 189 to 202.
But OP, your post is a bit hard to understand – if you are looking at the summary on your map – that only shows the skillpoints you have unlocked by doing the challenge. The skillpoints you get by leveling up are not listed there – so your hero panel should show more – or less if you unlocked many (expensive) traits and not exactly 189.
I think that’s where the confusion comes from.
