So You Have Maximum Power Points... How About Banking The Rest Or Something Else?

If your character hits the maximum limit on Power Point usage, would making Power Points bankable for an Alt to use be a good idea?

How about using excess Power Points like an in-game currancy to buy unique stuff (mounts, companions, item appearance change, unique artifact, exclusive weapon/armor enchantment) or simply convert to Astral Diamonds?

    You don't get any more after you hit the max, so there are no excess points.

    You don't get any more after you hit the max, so there are no excess points.

    Unless you bought some from the Sharandar campaign store or possibly from the Zen store. That said, even if there were always excess points awarded, the ideas put forth by the OP are not good. There shouldn't be anything else to do with power points except use them on powers. They should also fix the bug that allows characters to acquire more than 124 in the aforementioned cases.

    Can't buy from Sharandar if you can't use them.

    Right, but if you purchased from the Sharandar campaign before you had 124, then it will (or used to) continue to award them in experience awards until you had gotten 124 from that source.

    That is a bug for allowing it to be more than 124. Hence, the solution is to fix the bug and not making a bug to be a feature,

    That was my point!

    Thank you all for the response! I was wondering about that because my Wizard is almost maxxed out. It would be nice however to be able to pass the extra points to an alt through the account bank.

    They fixed the bug. 124 is all you get.
