Guild Wars 2

Is there any way to reset them?

No, but you will earn tons more than there are skills to spend them on. Even when you hit the level cap, you’ll still earn a skill point whenever you earn what would be another level’s worth of XP.

cool-thx. was just being impatient as i just hit 30 and only have 1 skill point banked and wanted an elite skill.

Seek out skill challenges in other low-level maps. Some of those challenges are as simple as walking up to an object and using it. Its a very easy way to catch a few extra points!

There are 202 skill challenges in the open world and the four WvW maps (according to the wiki, I can’t log in right now to verify). You also get 1 skill point per level, so 80 to reach cap. You also gain 1 skill point for each “level” you earn at cap.

I haven’t calculated the total skill point costs to learn every skill, but this quoted post from Zahmahkibo.6375 seems right (or very close). You will earn more skill points than you can use. (Not sure why the quote attribution doesn’t work)

…Humans and Sylvari pay 175 points for their full range of skills, I believe, while Charr and Asura pay 178, and Norn pay 182.

I’ve been playing primarily one norn character since preview. My run to 100% map completion plus all I earned from levels pre and post 80 have given me enough skill points to buy every skill, spend 50 on crafting a Mystic Forge weapon, and I still have 81 left over.
