You never stop acquiring skill points, even after you've finished getting all the skills. It takes until about 5.5 to 6 million exp. to acquire all the skills. There's quite a few of us who have a surplus of skill points gathering dust around here, unfortunately. Every so often, someone does come up with a new way to spend a few. The latest way is a sort of a hunt for special shoes in Cairo. ;-)

Thank you so much for the answers! At least I know I won't completely miss out on some skills as long as I keep playing.

Crunkhippo, I was all prepared to burn you up with mean language and safari jokes, but then I saw you've actually been around for a while :)

Plus your name and mine are sort of alike, in a Kenyan house of mirrors kind of way...let's be blood brother, 'kay?

The only thing I'd add to what has been said here already is that if and when you get to the point when you can start poking around Shangri-La, choosing one of the two skills available there precludes choosing the other. But you don't have to worry about that right now, so just play and enjoy.
