Well seince I just read this update... from sept 2.
http://www.guildwars.com/news/gameupdates.html
I got worried and I went on a shopping spree as shown here...
thats 54 Skill Capture Signets; i also bought 4 reg skills with the left over SP's I had left; costed me 1,120g 1,230g 1,240g 1,250g. the Skill caps alone where 20,000 and some gold.

The way I read it; I wont need to buy the regualer skills for my Mo/Anything if they suggest theres an alterivite way to "aquire" them... Did I forget to mention I was on a never ending quest to capture and aquire all skills for this one char.
(54 of 87 Elites left)

Will the maddness ever end!?!?!?(yes im crazy; crazy like a fox)

Feel free to give feedback about your opinions.

If you haven't already unlocked everything useful from the pvp xtreme weekend, there's no hope left.

you see that 476 Faction? thats all i have ever made in PvP. I wasnt interested in the xPvP event, and I meant Aquired by 1 char not "Unlocked" so far I got 43 elites cap'd with this guy alone of the 87... I really dont want to do Hell's peripce over and over becouse of 2 reasons; no monks besides me and idiots changing out winter for a "better skill" and going "lol" then leave.

How do you think I have 43 elites? im a Mo/Anything Iv done most missions 6 or more times for each class.

Iv only got about 218 skill points needed till I can buy the rest of the regulars.
my excel spread sheet say's I'v got 194 total unlocked.
Also im working on the sequal: The Quest For More Money.
Will the madness ever end!?!
Anyone interested in skill capping with me?
Frozen Forest/Talus Chute/Witmens folly/Ascention Missions/Dragions Lair/Pardition Rock are already compelte 2 left in snake dance.
now the hard ones, the missions within the fire island chain.

I have been a little worried too... currently a cap sig for me is about 300-400 gold each... each skill is 700+ each... and I am not even a hardcore PvE or hardcore unlock player... Now for those player... after the update, it might go up to 2000 gold per skills easily?? >_<

Usually I am not a farmer at all... but now... I am starting to consider searching for farming spots... for gold that is...

I hope its like Faction; a cool 1K per skill; a reg skill is now 1200g for me. it said...
"But the gold cost of learning a skill from a trainer will be somewhat more expensive for most players."
I hope "most players" dont mean players with over 100,000g, iv been in towns and man people say they still have like 20 and 30K so I hope we can... BUY SKILL POINTS WHOOO

Guess what? i got a free 29 skills points when the update came around; now if i was in the 4M range i would have had 60 = / but then!!!!!
53% a skill point within 1 run... even at my 2M xp mark.

175 skills left to buy.

Oh crap they said they lowered it only to 15K? i thought my esimate was right... i thought it kept getting higher... sleep depervation is playing mind tricks with my experiance bar; i think that made sense....

hey I saved 20,000+gold buying the skill cap's before the patch; Whats wrong with that?

REG skills where 1,200+ gold
Skill caps where less than that.
