Maximum number of skill points in Dragon Quest IX

Other than going back to the Inn at Stornway, I haven't seen a way of doing it. Just one of many little things that drives me nuts about this game.

A big reason to try out different vocations is to farm skill points.

For example, if you have a character who is a priest and you want him/her to learn wands. You could spend points you get from leveling up as a priest on your wand skill, but then it would be tougher to level up your priest vocation skill.

Instead you could make your character a mage, point all those points you get into wands, then switch back to priest. Then you could use all your priest points on your vocation.

A second reason is because maxing out an equipment skill at 100 points lets you use that skill on any class, even if they don't have it available. Martial artists for example cannot use shields, but you could level your martial artist as a class that can, get shields up to 100, then when you switch back to martial artist you will be able to use shields.
