At level 3 you will have received 10 stat points from the 2 level ups; at least a couple will likely have gone into constitution, and you may have strength requirements to try to meet for equipment you have found (not to mention needing more carrying capacity so you don't have to return to base as often from becoming encumbered), so I would expect at most 3 or 4 added points in agility. Early in the game agility is relatively easy to neglect, but once you get your constitution up a bit and get decent armour, you can start raising it more aggressively. You really have to adapt your stat point distribution as you play, based on the bonuses and requirements on equipment you find, your playing style and whether you start having any problems.

On average throughout the game, most people playing warriors invest 2 skill points per level into strength, 2 in agility, 1 in constitution and ignore intelligence (equipment bonuses should give you plenty of mana for the occasional spell).


The listed chance to hit or be hit is for an average monster of the same level. You do not have to worry about trying to max your chance to hit or minimize your chance to be hit, as you will not be able to even come close without some serious cheating. Basically, if you start getting hit a lot, miss a lot and never get the first hit in, start boosting agility (and/or upgrade equipment, and/or invest in the passive Stun skill, etc).

On level 3 (with a warrior), to reach a 94% chance of hitting an average level 3 opponent, you would need an agility of 38. To drop your chance to be hit to 19% you would need an agility of 63.
A skill like Stun (for a melee warrior) greatly enhances you offense, even if your chance to hit isn't wonderful. Conversely, good armour can compensate for a higher chance to be hit. You can not neglect agility too much, but you don't have to obsess over the hit percentages, either.
