Hmm.. I am playing my first game with a female survivor, intention was to be all theif-like and sneaky, with assassin-like skills to silently stalk and kill my prey. Heres my stats for my survivor. (The most powerful class IMHO, so far)

LeveL: 43
Strength: 107 (134 with Heavens Blessing)
Agility: 141 (171 with Heavens blessing)
Intelligence:
Constitution:
Chance to get hit by a level 43 monster: 23% (19% with heavens blessing)
Chance to hit a level 43 monster: 82% (94% with heavens blessing)
Vitality: 556
Magic: 334
Damage with my Fierce Hunting Bow: 61-212, with poisoned weapon skill, add variable poison damage at rate of 10.

Relevantly/useful Skills:
Lockpick (5)
Wisdom (5)
Poison Weapon (4)
Bow Weapon Skill (4) (recovery time for all bows is now 3, recovery >=5 is no noticable difference. I thought recovery of 0 would make my char fire arrows like a machine gun, but alas...)
Embrace Shadows (1)
Elven Stamina (1)
Poison Arrows (3) (useless if you have poison weapon)
Healing Spell (2)
Deadly Gift (2) (scorpion traps are a last resort I guess, or if you don't feel like fighting)
Divine Death (3)
Enchant Weapon (5)
Heavens Blessing (4) (35% increase to all stats)
Reflect Arrows (1) (I can still take damage from physical projectiles?)
Alchemy(2) (Make your own poisons if you want, though I had no less then 40 minor and mediums)

Tactics and strategy:
-The darkness is your best friend. Turn off as many light sources in dungeons as possible, like torches and candles. Then embrace the shadows and walk around with impunity. Note: Gold acts as a light source in my version (never patched game)
-Poison your arrows! Almost all creatures die within seconds of being poisoned. Especially all monsters without resistances (orcs & red-blooded critters). Poison will also stack with each attack (arrow doesn't need to hit to inflict poison status). Poisoned enemies will be effectively slowed down since they take damage every half-second. However, undead, snakes, and dragon warriors + few others are completely immune & thus pose threats. Most bosses are easily slaughtered. Concentrate on agility to increase your "To Hit" rating. Engage multiple enemies at a time, generally 1 shot = 1 kill with poison.
-Hit and run tactics: Obviously you don't want to fire arrows point blank if you can do so just as effectively from a distance. Poison combined with a very fast fire rate improve the effects of this strat.
-I don't know if this is a "feature" or a "bug" which has been patched or not, but I discovered that if you put your mouse over an enemy and use the "embrace shadows" on them, you disappear completely and can fire without reappearing. Essencially, invincibility. Only way that you'd reappear is to encounter a light source or gold (caution: monsters may drop it next to you)
-Steel Scorpions: Insanely strong scorpions can take on an army. Even at a deadly gift level of 2, I pump out lvl 200 scorpions who can take on all monsters in a dungeon combined. So easy its almost cheap.
-Item with mana-stealing + heal spell: I found the axe of crusades, 50-100 dmg, poison (2), stun (5), mana-stealing (5). I can take on a near infinite amount of imps, each successful hit gives me 5 mana which can be used to cast heal on myself, or whatever spell I wish.
-Divine Teleportation: I hate walking. Just shift+scroll and click where you want to go. I guess it doesn't worry about distance, just make sure its a line of sight path. Before I had to use the Frog Statuette to travel fast. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
-If outdoors and facing a tough monster/boss: wait for night time so you can embrace the shadows. Doesn't work on the bad tree in the dark woods though. He instinctively *knows* where you are. Its his home, after all.

I have become a walking god...no wait! Deity! (I wish I had angelic wings after the divine transformation!!! That'd be awe inspiring for the peasants to see me, and woe to the enemy who see's an angelic warrior in battle. I'd be like that piss-sodden orc in the wastelands! A god among mere mortals! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />)

Hope that helps!
