How did you place your basic stats and for what class? Any reasoning behind why?
My (human) Cleric was blessed with:
14 Str
12 Con
12 Dex
10 Int
16 Wis
10 Cha
Figured he would do a fair bit of melee and as str gives bonuses both to hit and to damage i wanted it fairly high. 12 con gives an extra hitpoint each level (as well as bonus to fortitude saves i think). Didnt want negative mods to int since it gives less skillpoints, and opted for taking Wisdom high but not too high since it costs alot. Wanted no negatives on charisma either since it affects alot of skills such as barter, diplomacy etc. I might have lowered dex if i would have redone it since i can wear armour thats heavy enough not to allow any dex bonus to affect AC, and i dont use ranged weapons much, nor do i have to save vs traps and other reflex stuff much.
Overall i enjoy balanced builds, and wanted the cleric to become adept in many fields
As for skills i chose to specialize in the class specific ones (heal etc, the three without an * ) as well as a little barter for better prices when buying/selling. For feats i took one that lessens the chanse to get interupted when casting and one that increases spellpoints (iirc)
