Playing as a warrior, how do you distribute your 5 points each time you level up?
I think it is hard to do this right because I feel agility is as important as strength, even for a warrior (offense and defense!). So each level I put 2 points in strenth, 2 in agility and 1 in constitution. The problem is that at the end of the day, you don't really excell in an attribute.
What's your take on this? Do you (dis)agree? Let me know <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kitty.gif" alt="" />

Sure, but as a warrior, points invested in intelligence are wasted (in my opinion). You'll still find some powerful items (like the Dragon Set) that often give you extra magic if you need it.

I also varied my stat distribution depending on my requirements at the time, but it averaged out to around 2 strength, 2 agility and 1 constitution for much of the game. When I had enough hit points that I could not be killed in a couple hits by a strong opponent, I reduced how often I put points into constitution. I only put 1 point into intelligence, after 1 was stolen by the vampire.
I don't think excelling at a particular attribute is necessary for a warrior. Playing again, I might put a little less into constitution and more into agility.


Just before fighting the Demon of Lies, my stats were as follows (the number in brackets indicates the values with no equipment, without Finnigan's lockpicks in my inventory).

Level 53 Warrior

Vitality 1260 (444)
Magic 574 (30)

Strength 145 (111)
Agility 150 (112)
Intelligence 18 (10)
Constitution 100 (74)

Offense 124 (89)
Defense 108 (78)
Damage 139-178 (54-64)
Armour 484 (0)
Lightning Resistance 95 (25)
Fire Resistance 110 (25)
Poison Resistance 35 (25)
Spirit Resistance 95 (25)

Thanks for the answers. I guess the 2-2-0-1 distribution makes sense, depending on requirments of course.
