I'd love it if there was a way to 'bank' skill points somehow. Some grand item you have to craft or beast you have to slay can provide some super rare thingy that lets you bank. It could add to the adventure as you retrieve the "Chalice of Memory" where, when equipped, adds 1 XP for every 10 xp you earn (or some such) to a maximum or some kind of skill loss shield that reduces / negates the impact of skill loss upon death ONE TIME, then the item must be replaced. Make it super rare and super tough so that the act of getting it could be more detrimental than not retrieving it in the first place. Kinda rough but...
