I just wanted to ask whats the best way to get skill points. I know you can get them in Missions, but can you only get them for the Campaign that you started in? And what repeatable quests offer a good amount of xp or what area should I fight in to get a good amount of xp?

Thanks in advance.

For Campaign skill points, you can get them from missions after where you come in at. So, if you start in Elona, and port your character to Tyria, you can get skill points in missions after Lion's Arch, starting at D'Alessio Seaboard I think. The same goes for Factions, you can get skill points from mainland missions, but nothing from Shing Jea. The exception to the rule is Elona. Last time I checked, you can even get the skill points from the very first mission, even though it happened before you got their.

For questing, I suggest that you go to one of the high level farming areas. FoW, UW, SF, the Deep, Urgoz Warden, and DoA are all areas with high level enemies and quests for experience. I prefer FoW runs due to the large number of quests and relative ease compared to some of the other missions, but any are strong possibilities.

In addition to the high experience you get from quests in UW and FoW, if you finish Prophecies, there are the Glint quests which give out I think 20k xp? Or is it 10k?

Glint gives out 20,000 for defend droks, defend north kryta, defend denravi, and last day dawns. The last titan quest, titan source, gives out 50,000.

Also, the Sorrows Furnace quests give out a lot of experience. 10,000 to finish it all and like 5000-10,000 per quest (4 of them) and a quest after that called final assult that gives out a good amount of exp.

If you have a warrior, solo farm trolls outside of droks with exp scrolls, it takes longer than it used to but is still doable and gives out good exp and decent money.

Capping skills gives a nice XP boost also. Of course you spend a point for a SoC...

Ele troll farming is a XP gaining machine.

Soloing bosses is a nice way to get experience. I like to solo Exuro Flatus. He gives 464 exp per run, but doubles with the blessing giving over 900xp per run and 2 lightbringer points. Each run only takes 3-4 minutes. You also get a chance at a nice green fire staff.
