A simple (not so lame) idea for all those unused skill points piling up
Hank J. Wimbleton (Skill Point Collector)
2 - Regular tome of your choosing
3 - Superior Identification Kit
4 - Superior Salvage Kit
5 - Elite tome of your choosing
25 - 10 flames of Balthazar
50 - Birthday present(series 1 and 2)
100 - 100 cupcakes
250 - Mini Abbadon
500 - Armbrace of Truth
1000 - Ring of Power can be traded for a...
Legendary Item(Gold like tormented weapons but awesomer skin)
(yes different skin for Sword)
I know my reward ideas are kinda crappy,
so if you have better ideas please post
them im not very creative (my answering machine is just a beep)
I have so many useless skill points
Some way to rid them would be cool

I liek the idea of a reward system of some kind. Pbviously the rewards themselves need not be exactly the same or in those proportions but this at its root is an excellent idea

by GW:EN i'll have lots and lots of skill points so by GW2 . . .
And with a double cap XP weekend thats going to net me half a million XP and that (i think) is 33 skill points alone
With these prices its a reward but not realy exploitable (awaits the "zomg thnk of da bots" crowd)

i like the idea, because i have lots of skill points left and the skill hunter title doesn't attracts me.

/signed I like the idea, the rewards need a bit of a tweek though something like say:
5 - Regular tome of your choosing
25 - Elite tome of your choosing
50 - Birthday present(series 1)
100 - Birthday present(series 2)
250 - Everlasting Beetle Juice
5 - Regular tome of your choosing
25 - Elite tome of your choosing
50 - Birthday present(series 1)
100 - Birthday present(series 2)
250 - Everlasting Beetle Juice

sophitia i love the idea for the everlasting tonic
maybe a choice between a beetle one and a candy corn one and an elf one

Farming skillpoints is very easy. Just solo a lot and you'll get loads of them. This would make a very cheap way to get elite skill tomes and minipets. This would considerably hurt the economy for those items.
But I would really want to see some kind of reward for experience over level 20. Maybe some attribute points that you can grind in a very slow way. Something more rewarding as the skill points that come useless after you get the builds you need.

I like this idea.
There really should be some use for skill points for the long term player. My primary character now has around 450 spare skill points doing nothing, and this idea is a nice use for them.

I get enough normal/elite tome drops from farming. I unlock many skills in PvP and take them from tomes. So I should make benefits from my skill points!
Great idea

Hm... maybe too cheap...
I'll chage it to...
5: Normal Tome
10: Elite Tome
500: Any year present
1000, 1500... every 500 more, another year present, you could choose the year.

I think that it shouldn't be birthday presents. I know I have looked forward to my past 2 years of presents a lot, and it would be kind of spoiled if I can get one anytime(not to mention prices on the rarer ones would plummet). How about a new series for the trader? I wouldn't mind seeing a mini candy corn titan (i4got the name of what the halloween henchies were) and I'm sure everyone would love to have a mini black moa 
This would be a good way to add some more treats after GW:EN is released, because you could also add minipets of the new monsters/allies (rarity depending on cool factor/animation). And while I totally agree with the idea of giving tonics, maybe not everlastings. Those should be kept to a very rare status (though when they release everlasting transmorgifier, I will be all over it!). Maybe something like "Huge ________ Tonic" which will have something like 20 or 30 uses. Fireworks would also be a good prize, though you should be able to get a good amount per skill point, not just 1.
/signed, as long as its tweaked to make it unique

/signed except for birthday presents. Maybe a range of minipets that it is (only?) possible to obtain via this method. But the idea of tomes sounds good, ditto flames of balthazar.
However, have to be careful, as can either flood market with both elite and normal tomes, so maybe only self use?

Making skill points usable for obtaining already existing items would hurt the economy.
IE skill points being tradable for tomes will greatly drop the prices of tomes, making it pointless to play in HM to get those. The same goes with minis and birthday presents.
I think this would only be okay if new items are introduced or the trade-ins are merchant items (ie salvage kits, id kits, etc).

I like the idea alot (because I have 200+ skill points sitting there doing nothing) but I think the reward requirment (aka skill points) needs to be set higher. And my other concerns are:
- ot will make bot even richer
- its effect upon the market (elite tomes requiring 5 skill points?)
...and I personally think birthday present should be solid BIRTHDAY-only presents - not something that can be gained by grinding skill points.

/signed so my maxed derv will have something to do with all those extra skill points! XD
But as others have already said, don't make the rewards come cheap, and don't give away event items or birthday gifts. I'm all about some customized weaponry, ID/salvage kits, booze/sugar, or special minis just for this, though!

i agree rewards shouldn't come cheap and love the ideas for a new series of minipets for the skill point trader
maybe some like:
Mini Hellhound
Mini Flesh Golem
Mini candy corn(good idea fish monger)
Mini Abbadon
Mini Rurik(with brand new icy dragon sword)
Mini Hippo(i miss u from preview event)
Mini Charr Blade
Mini Ruby Djinn
Mini Margonite Reaper
Mini Greater Darkness
just some ideas

Sorry bro. Cant say I would approve of skill points being traded for ANYTHING of actual value. Its part of the GW dynamic.

/signed only for "skill" items.
2 for a normal tome I think is fair game.
10 for an elite tome seems reasonable.
25 for 10 Flames of Balth Seems Reasonable to me.
Also, I'd like to see something like:
25 for an upgrade unlocked on your account.
Maybe other ideas along these lines. It would make PvE characters more flexible, and able to PvP better. So, I'm all for this type of line. It would also connect PvE and PvP more.
I'm assuming the Skill Point collectors would also be in PvP areas?

it is so easy to get a skill point, i'm not sure you understand how easy it is.
my warrior has 300+ unused skill points from over 2 years....
I like the idea of getting tomes and elite tomes with skill points but getting everlasting bettle tonics and torment items is pretty dumb thing to do.
Solo farm, you'll have 500 skill points in no time, yay armbraces are worth nothing

i already stated the my examples arnt very good but i totally agree the weapons should be customed
also skills points are not very easy to earn after the quests and missions are done earning 500 is not a simple task and anything can be farmed
ps still w8in for titans to go down to 5k each then getting a tormented staff

like the skill tomes idea, but instead maybe make it a skill unlock. That way it couldnt be traded/sold.

i love this idea, even if u would only get tomes and not anything else form the collector, i got like 400 unused skill points on my monk, and even if I went for like skill hunter titles i wouldnt use them all. We need a way to use those useless skill points that just pile up

hmmm this is giving me an idea
x skill points = regular tome(PvE reward)
x skill points = 1 Flame of Balth(PvP reward)
x skill points = elite tome(PvE reward)
x skill points = 3 Flames of Balth(PvP reward)
x skill points = regular tome(PvE reward)

I like the idea of being able to spend the skill points I have accumulated on my HvH PvP Only Assassin! I think a more important issue though, would be a better outlet for Balth Faction than Tournament Tokens, but, if they fix that, I am all for this idea ^^

I really like the idea, however, it would be easily abused by Shing Jea skill-point farmers.
Perhaps have access to this trader, only after you beat the last mission?

Not sure as to what would be both a decent reward AND not hurt the in-game economy (a facet of GW that I love). Something trivial, but not so lame it's not worth the trade I suppose....uh...good luck finding something that fits the bill. *shrug*

This is similar in vein to the Experience title.
Too easy, not really challenging. It will hurt the economy.
Forget bots...look at FFFer skill points.
Each Champion has 2000+...and there are dozens of saviors and champions.
500 for an armbrace? GG I get 10 easy.
No thanks.
If this was implemented, those rewards would be nigh worthless from the moment that update touched ground.
Each minipet would be worth 1k, tomes 100g max, and so on.
