Aye, what i was thinking of. I've run twice to 20, necro was easy, just put all mana related and hiding up
With Dark Templar though, well, gotta save the points i guess, only use what needed.

Ok, so this is not my research but I found this on the forums and it seems to be valid.
Some people have been questioning about how much the endurance and run speed skills actually help. This will explain it.
First we'll go with the easy one, run speed. Every 100 points into run speed gives you a 1% increase to movement speed out of combat. At level 80, with 800 points in run speed, you will be 8% faster than you were when you started, plus whatever you gain from gear. Putting only 1 point into run speed does nothing. You should only add to run speed in 100 point increments.
Now, endurance is a little more complicated, but works on the same basis. Every 100 points reduces your stamina usage by 1%. At level 1 each tick of sprint uses up 20% of your max stamina. This gives you 5 full ticks of sprint. At level 80, with 800 points into stamina, each tick will only cost 12% of your max stamina. This equates to huge gains in distance. Examples below.
Person 1 has 0 points into Run Speed and 0 points into Endurance.
Person 1 can sprint 100 feet (5 ticks) before running out of Stamina.
Person 2 has 800 points into Run Speed and 0 points into Endurance.
Person 2 can sprint 108 feet (5 ticks) before running out of Stamina.
Person 3 has 800 points into Run Speed and 800 points into Endurance.
Person 3 can sprint 162 feet (9 ticks) before running out of Stamina.
Person 4 has 800 points into Run Speed, 800 points into Endurance, and 8% movement speed from gear.
Person4 can sprint 174 feet (9 ticks) before running out of Stamina.
Important to note, however, that while run speed works at just 100 points in, endurance gives you no benefit until 350 points in. So wait until level 35 and dump 350 points into it and you will see a 3.5% reduction in stamina use per tick, thus have 16.5% stamina used per tick, giving you an extra tick (for 6 total) of sprinting.
P.S. climbing
Not sure if anyone else has seen this before, but there are a couple of ladders in the docks of Old Tarantia that require a climbing skill of 300 to use them. I think the soonest you can get 300 points in this skill is about lvl 30. Once you climb to the very top there is a little alcove with a treasure chest which contains a couple of pots, one of which gives you a 100% chance to do a fatality for the next couple of seconds
.For testing purposes, when a skill goes over 400 points it costs 50S to reset, at 300-400 it's only 1S. I'd suggest capping at 399 until you're certain. I have a couple of skills in the 400+ range and can't realistically reset them atm.
This is from my own experience and not corroborated by any shred of evidence
