Just wondering if they made any major changes, particularly around balancing with combat and stuff.

I haven't played the game before, I just started but was looking around at some threads for tips for character builds which are obviously mostly pre-developers cut. I've seen some provide their current stats. My character is starting with way higher stats than the ones I saw.

i.e.

Vitality 37
Spirit 25
Strength 39
Dexterity 21
Intelligence 31

Is this a result of re-balancing, or was I reading those threads wrong?
