Q u o t e: From what I have seen all spells and abilities max out at 1 point.
The only things going past 1 point are passives that do things like -2% slowing effect per point and lower mana cost of spells in arcane tree by x% per point or +2% damage for all arcane spells per point.
That was true over a year ago. It is no longer true, and hasn't been for a very long time...which has been re-iterated numerous times in this very thread.

Yes, lower caps to promote diversity, but the caps are not 1 for active skills. The current cap for active skills is 5, with a way to raise the cap to 15 on a per skill basis. As long as the increase is less than 1 per level, a player will have to diversify.

man. ofc blizzard works tons of years, hours, minutes to just get all active skills to a 5 point cap, so that you could max out 20 skills at all? have a little faith. if you are going to do so, your build will suck anyway. there will be a way to increase cap, and if not, blizz will make something as an addition or they'll add a way to increase caps or something that we wont be able to "max out every skill". they think of this details of the details, but they dont care about the skill system and will make it uncostumable------ have faith instead of a .... let's say option that we should respect ^^lol
lets have another couple of "i dont like that because, because.. because I dont like that"-threads. we dont know everything about the skill system and how to costimate everything yet. we could also flame blizzard for the 5th class ò.ò

Skill caps start at 5 and go up from there. We'll have a way for them to be increased and right now we like the idea of the player being able to choose which one/s they want to increase. So if that's the case it'll probably be an item you can use to "unlock" a skill cap to a higher number, and maybe a few of these skill cap unlocking items will be provided through playing the game (major quest/act completion rewards) and then also maybe as very rare item drops.
Anyway, locking the thread because it's about old info.
