I say max your primary stats as soon as possible - you will have a much better time levelling (take a long time unless ur a bard or getting p.levelled) and you free up slots for +mana,resists, or +hp. My enc is 51 and has 187 int, 156 cha so I've still a while to go before I get full on these two stats and I'm already 51.
If I was relying on procs I would go for dex and str equally. Any newbie should buy some platinum fire wedding rings ASAP (500pp), the best 500 you will ever spend.
I'd even (personally) recommend points in str for weak casters like DE since you will spend half the time over-encumbered, which means death especially when needing to run away. Human makes a good choice for any int caster because of their decent physical stats imo.
There is no point where I have felt I would like more stam and I'm at 15 days played. Maybe one day I will change my mind, but I'm more of a carpe diem kind of player.
