Well, will I be starting at level 1?  I ask because I know that every time a character levels up, he gets points towards his stat progression percentage.  If I'm starting at level 1, then I was going to take the points for a few levels and invest them into improving Strength to up around 45-50%.  IMO, Strength isn't super important at the very beginning.  Plus, if my attack skill is good enough, I can attack twice which will diminish the handicap put on me by low STR.<br/><br/>OTOH, if I'm not starting at level 1, then it doesn't really matter what my initial setup is, because I can take the points from the level ups and distribute them however...
