Skills, yes. Runes? Not when you want a specific one/have unlocked say, 80% of them. Which is pretty much the boat I'm in.

And, yeah, arena progression is slower then molasses. Seems like an encouregement to get people to start doing GvG...

Or at least to start doing ranked GvG. A lot of guilds do unranked just for the fun of it, but I guess ANet is trying to discourage that.

The faction point unlocking is useful for item mod unlocking, since it allows you to get the perfect modifiers instead of finding one that's only a few off. I don't think it'd be worth it to go for skills since by the time you get to Droknar's and beyond you'll probably have learned quite a few skills and the ones you haven't you can just create dummy characters to get those and then be deleted.
