Quote (The Barbarian)
Possible Stating:
Melee: All points into dexterity until you reach about 120-130 dexterity WITH items. Rest into strength then.
If you do not have good gear, you may put the first 5 - 10 points into vitality or even more for a vita-barb ( until level 15-20)
This char is very cheap. All you need is a high defence armour, maybe with strength or vitality, a medium weapon with enhanced effect and a charm with vitality,
strength, max life or life steal. Dexterity gear is more expensive. Another possibility: Put all points into strength for a higher basic damage, but low chance on critical hits.
Caster: All points into intelligence. Because of the very low intelligence and high strength, this char is not very likely to be played as a caster, rather go for fighter then.
