If you choose to use further on to fight with two (Dual) swords, you can indeed better put points in Strength. wink

But a bow is also a good thing to have.
You begin the game and choose the Archer (with "My first Bow" + the skill "Poison Arrow")?
Try this, it is fun. and my favorite Ranger skill is "Ranger Stealth"... laugh

But nobody says you must do this or that... You're totally Free wink

Personal I find Strength, Dexerity and Intelligence the most useful stats to put points in and later on you can find equipment enough that have points in vitality (or hitpoints) or mana (or spirit) ... or you can use charms...
A pure Mage can also put more points in Spirit if he/she wish...

But each Level you go up, you Vitality and Spirit goes 4 points up, automatically smile.

Success!

You get 4 stat points each level. I've been using a warrior with mage and ranger abilities, so for each level I'd put 2pts in strength, 1 in dex, and 1 in intel. Once I got to about 25 and wanted more intelligence, I switched it to 2 intel, 1 str and 1 dex. Because of that, as of right now (at lvl 27) My melee resistance is over 30 while ranged and magic resistance are both at 28. Conditioned, heightened, and indom are all well over 50. Just keep it even and consistent and you'll have an all-around good guy.

In the beginning of the game it is handy your strength and dexerity is just high enough for using weapons
(sword, axe, hammer > strength requirment - bow > dexerity requirment ... also some weapons required an amount of intelligence...)
And strength, dexerity and intelligence are also good for building up your defense!

So if you have enough points put in str., dex. and int. for most weapons you find ... you can put, so you wish, more points in vitality and spirit...

But don't forget: try out something and feel free to make your perssonal hero with statistics YOU want ... (...see growing further ...stronger ... laugh ) wink

You don't need to invest anything in vitality or spirit. You get upgrades each level - I forget the number, between 4-8 points each level. As you advance, you can use charms and enchantments as well as various weapons will boost them. So IMHO adding to those two stats is a waste.

I think both my vit and spi are under 4 - and they're only past 1 because I've added charms. And both my HP and mana are over 400.

I would still invest in dexterity because it boosts your ranged resistance and your heightened reflexes which in turn boosts your chance of dealing a critical hit.

If you're ONLY playing as a mage and no ranger or warrior, I'd go with 2 intel, 1 dex, 1 str. However, if you'll be incorporating various skills from the 4 different areas, think about what you want to use early on so you can plan to add skills accordingly.
