How many skill points

"Guys if this was already answered sorry in advance"

Just trying to figure out how many skill points we get per end game.  A few sights state we get 50 while others say 250-350.

    Latest thing I have read is a dev posting in German that 300 skill points is currently achievable on the PTS. Likely similar in game upon release. New zones likely mean more skill points later as Vet ranks continue to raise.

    You stay sassy!

    Everything I have read points to enough to make two full out builds or one and plenty of freedom to dabble in the rest.

     

    Something I take in to consideration when looking at this sort of thing too is my entire account. 8 characters with specific roles is an account cap. That's a mind set though, one I have developed over the years. I won't be playing a character in this game, I will be playing an account. They are like chess pieces to me.

    I think the OP is confusing ability points (magicka, stamina, health) with skill points. 

    You get 49 ability points to put into any of the three stats above. 

    Skill points on the other hand you get 50 base I believe (normal leveling) but can achieve hundreds through other means, chiefly sky shards. This should be plenty to skill out multiple builds under a single character without the need to reset (which you can also do for a price). 

    Most of my builds have been around 90 - 120 points, with some skills overlapping you could skill up about 2 - 3 builds on a character at one time swapping gear as needed without much effort.

    - Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

    I hope you're joking!

    You don't have to max every single skill line with every passive in every tree (which comes to about 300 with all 3 armor types maxed).  You can respec!

    Its not a realistc build, just a max build. Ill go slow at 1st and just keep respec as I go along.

    Just trying to figure out how many skill points we get per end game.  A few sights state we get 50 while others say 250-350.

    49 from levelling 1-50.  2 more for vet ranks 1-10 I believe.

    So 51 from levelling.

    101 from skyshards.

    ~20-30 from questing.

    ~20-30 from PvP.

    So that's 200 right there...but I know there's a lot more.  I would say 300 is a pretty good estimate...but you can be positive there are more than 200.

Who knows though what the Dark Brotherhood patch would bring along for skills so you probably always want to have a few unused for any content update.

    I think I may just level 2 characters and bite the bullet to be sure I always have enough points, one will be a great crafter and the other will be my fighter. The crafter could be one I spec for AOE to be an efficient farmer - we'll see.

    Yup. Looks like Ill have a crafter alt also. Just to keep my main with some skill points for the DB, and I hope a Thieves Guild in the future.
