Making a Ranger.. (I know right?)

[chiefrocka]

Im thinking of going with a Half Elf because of the better melee stats. I figure that would make things that much easier leveling before the spells. Guess I'll just farm bone chips and try to get rid of them in the EC tunnel until I make enough plat for a decent weapon. The wiki says to put all the starting points into STR as a Half Elf Ranger.. but I noticed most classes dump into Stamina so I am not sure which route to take. Any suggestions?

Thanks for all the help so far!
