I'm so torn. As a half elf, I can worship Erollisi Marr, who is like the coolest godess ever, and I won't hurt too much from low str. But as a high elf, I get to be part of the cool high elven society, be all nature-y, and won't suffer from low wis. What should I do? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I know this is going to sound cliche, but really...play what makes you happy. If you want to be a half-elf worshiper of the Lady Erollisi, go for it. Leveling a paladin is tedious (that xp penalty is painful), that's the plain honest-to-God truth, but they really are a fun class to play. You're going to hit more than cast, so build based on being a tank, not a caster.
