    In most cases, no one would slot additional traits over skills.

    Generally speaking, the benefits gained from slotting your AP points into your PvP skills for reduced CD's, increased duration, or increased potency FAR outweighs any benefits you can gain from boosting your traits. Most of your stats can be adequately min/maxed just using a good mix of PvE/PvP gear. Some of those stats can be buffed by using your AP traits, but those traits are limited on what they can accomplish because they can only scale your gear stats within the ilvl 150 sync. Technically, you would be stronger, but the odds of that additional strength actually making a difference in the heat of battle is quite low. PvP skills, on the other hand, can be used in the heat of the moment for an immediate and readily visible effect that could very well make the difference between winning and losing.

    In the end, you're better off using your points for your skills and doing the best you can for your actual char stats by maximizing your gear potential. It can be a pain in the ass, because you have to map out where all the stat caps are, but it's definitely better than wasting AP points that are better used for skills.
