Skill Points For Lvls 102-104+

Title says it all
Should the levels after 101 receive skill points?
Answer the poll and answer why yes or why not

uuuuh... why? do they already? why shouldn't they? I mean you gotta explain a bit more than that

 

The point requirements of every single item is carefully balanced around the fact that we only have 200 points to play around with. putting in any more points would mess with that and give IMs an unnecessary amount of extra work to rebalance everything around the new point cap.

That's not to say it can't happen in the future, maybe if the level cap increases to something substantially above 101 (i personally don't think 105 is high enough to justify more points), there would be more of an arguement to adding full support to those new levels, not just with skill points, but also new gear, potions, and better professions support.

 

It's not needed right now since there are only 2 gameplay things that change above level 101: new quests and crafted gear. Like Chrono said, it would be better to add a new cap when we get a bigger level increase with actual gears for those new levels

 

Wouldn't it be possible to add some kind of other "reward" for leveling up from 101-105 (1.19) then, though? Like, some additional perks you can unlock, or maybe some further skill...?
Because right now it feels kind of unnecessary to level up to 105 at all.

 

Yes, because it can make some builds possbile, more flexible and I think it's fun to have extra skill points.

EDIT: But, as someone said before, it could also make the game unbalanced. Well, if they decide to make us get more skill points, it's fine with me.

 

You already get the ability to use the higher-level crafted gear, plus the extra hp.

 

+20 HP ftw

 

25 more hp and the ability to use stuff you rarely use feels kind of unrewarding though.

 

I don't think it would make a huge change, but it would allow people to have slightly more leeway in builds (and as someone who has been thwarted by a 1 skill point difference before, I fully support that) and would actually feel like leveling up does something for you.

 

As mentioned before, everything at the endgame is designed around the player having 200 skill points to work with right now. Doing this would only grant 8 more skill points and while they are helpful in some cases, I don't see that little being necessary to change right now. Maybe in the future when there's >10 levels worth of skill points to add then maybe but even then...

The extra levels give you access to more quests, a new area, higher level crafted items and some (not many!) higher level items, once added. Oh and the health... I guess.
