bard race and starting stats?

[shibal227]

Does race matter? and whats best to put into starting stats?

[Kowalski]

Half-elf dex/cha

[Videri]

I'd go all dex. Procs for PvP (skean, tash orb, blind whip) and fewer missed notes when every keystroke counts.

I wouldn't put any points into charisma on Red. I did, about 5 or 10; but I wish I had put them into dex for proc rate in PvP. You can always carry a couple high-cha pieces. At 60, I barely charm at all except to farm, and that's usually low-level mobs that never resist or break charm.

20 into RMT
5 into <Empire> app.

[Heebo]

1. STA
2. DEX

[Malevz]

Dex isn't so hard to get, and cha isn't that important. Even with base cha + gear you won't see many crit resists.

Basically what Heebo said. some dex, some sta.

INT/DEX/Charisma

[Rythm]

If you're gonna get the best gear, all +INT for extra dirge-power
