as an example
my high elf Cleric of Light [all rounder]
my stats:
Str 10 (increases to 15 with club of str)
Dex 15 (increases to 16 at level 4 or takes dual wield)
Con 12
Int 13 (decreased to 12 at druid grove and firebolt)
Wis 14 (main spells and perception skill to find items)
Cha 13 (increases to 14 at druid grove)
at levels 1&2 she fights as melee with 2 shortswords or shortsword and shield... also attacks against her get disadvantage because of her aurora
at level 3 her offensive fire spells made me want to fight at range and i gave her the special bow the hag sells to reset a spell
around here i got the club of str in the off hand and a nice free longsword
at level 4 she was going to take an extra Dex and pick "Weapon Master" but i changed my mind and went with dual wield feat so she could equip the longsword in her main hand \ swapping out the short sword
i didn't reach level 5 before ending the run
understand that taking a negative charisma will really hurt you post patch 9 because most talks auto default to the player character now as Larian really has little clue what D&D is about... i like to do the talking but you could take Wyll and at least cha 10 which would then allow you to take an even Dex, regardless this character has strong spells, good melee or range (spells) and excellent defence
p.s, i see Larian managed to break selfhosted profile images again... fixed {sorry if it took me a while to notice}
