Paladin stats & race

[FatherSioux]

Starting stats certainly are splitting hairs. Building your toon to be able to withstand the extreme situations is the way to go. More mana allows you to withstand these scenarios. Everyone saying that more mana isn't important is speaking to the ho-hum grind group where 99% of play falls, but when the going gets tough you can save the day with more mana as a Paladin. Wisdom build is the way to go without a doubt. Human for Fashion Quest, Dwarf for Min/Max.
