I have felt your pain...

But it gets better once you near the end of Cadwell's silver and begin gold. Just keep questing. I think the group dungeon events give a skill point too (is that correct?).

Scyantific

Hunt Shards, do all the Group Dungeon quests, do the Group Challenge in each Public Dungeon, and do the main story quests. Then PvP.

My main has 300 SP and does every single crafting profession.

Skill points come out the wa-zoo if you give the game time. I've only ever had to respec when I switch from ww to vamp and whatnot, or decide to re-evaluate my weapon priorities, but I've always been able to make it work. Just work within your means in terms of skill points, and as you progress you'll be able to spread your wings more. Also definitely take advantage of guilds. A lot of them have nice people who'll help you out by crafting stuff at a low price, some will even help as long as you give them materials.

@Tholian1 that is where im at i am a solo player never have anybody to group with so can't do dungeons that much and yes the first time they do

eNumbra

My main at V14, only did 2 Group dungeons but did everything else outside of Craglorn quests - ~250 Skill points.

There is at least 5 skill points per area from the quest lines. So that's 75 (not sure about coldharbour, don't remember.

16 skyshards in every main area. That's like 85 skill points. Call it 90 with the starter islands. Another 10 maybe from craglorm, 10-15 from Cyrodiil (just join and empty campaign and find the skyshards).

Plus the 60 something for levelling up.

I'm vet 10 with dual weild, bow, one handed and shield with the actives I want and every passive. All heavy armor passives, first 3 maxed in light and medium. All race and class passives and abilities I need. Everything in provisioning, blacksmithing, clothing, woodworking and enchanting. Another 10-20 points used in random things like undaunted, fighters guild, alliance war etc. I still have like 8 skill points spare...

They're super easy to get them

Loomis

I only use 16 sp in combat related skills at 42 ... Things melt like butter i have like 80 in crafting skills

It's a non issue unless piping and a crafter has no business there anyway fighting
