Not everyone uses Regular and/or Elite Skill Tomes.
You don't need to use tomes to have an excess ammount of skill points.

Actually you can get reward points from choosing the Xunlai House Tournament matches which can be traded for Z keys, so again the logic that it is only a pvp reward is faulty. Instead of turning an idea of this nature down cause you want to hoard something, look at it as an opportunity

and what are the Xunlai house tournament matches again?
arent they pvp battles?

if you mean that because pve chars have access to the npc, well, pve chars have access to pvp outposts too.

for PvP only char skillpoints i would agree, my monk has about 50. =)

for the rest, no thank you. farming in pve already gives you money while AT THE SAME TIME rewarding you with XP & skillpoints.

now, imagine if you could exchange those for rewards TOO.

this is like PvP players being able to exchange Fame, Glads or Champ points for stuff..

not going to happen anyways lulz

People can farm Balth Faction like nothing too.

I suppose this would create a huge influx of Z keys, and the price would plummet even further. I can't even sell those things for 1k ea. They would end up being worth absolutely nothing... literally... if this was implemented. With a huge influx of Z Keys with no value would eventually cause a huge influx of perfect golds, and those would eventually drop to no value.

I don't know if z-keys is the answer to unused skill points, but I'd like to see some use for them, instead of taking up space and being some completely obsolete figure

Farming balthazar faction, while quite easy, is not close to being as easy as farming skill points. Takes longer to kill a few players then it does to kill mobs of enemies in a few minutes.

People love to bash and separate the pve world and pvp. Hmm.. funny, I see a lot of people use pve characters in pvp.

Yes, the moment a feature to trade 10 SP for 1 Z key is introduced, the price of keys will sharply fall. In fact, it might break the Z key so hard that it won't ever come back up past 2k (might loom around the 1k part).

I am, however, for the idea of either trading skill points for Rep Points, or using skill points as a monetary value of some sort, like a token in an arcade machine, and gamble for an item.

Oooooor, call me crazy, but create a chest SIMILAR to the Zaishen chest, but make it PvE only, and you can, then use SP to open the chest (the more you use at one time, the better the item will be).

Sound fun? yeye?
