str is arguably the easiest stat to max with gear
dump everything into sta and never look back

With silly amounts of raid gear sta gets capped even without raid buffs as a war of ant race. Charisma is arguably therefore endgame minmax stat.

Definitely put most of your points in STA. 5-10 STR to make your life easier early going is fine. That being said, given it's Velious era, I'd personally just get some cheap STR jewelery / items to hold me over.

Gotta be honest with yourself about the character though. Are you rushing to the end game (what I'd be doing) or are you gonna spend the next year or two savoring the journey? If the former, consider min maxing, if the latter, do what lets you enjoy the ride.

As a Halfling Warrior, max out STA. FoS + VoG will max out your STR/DEX while raiding.

gnome is kinda master race w/ arms and wallhax but halfling is baller

race doesnt matter its velious in 2025

For warriors sta is a no brainer since you're the class that gets the most out of it not only in hp per sta but in functionality too.

But for your question, you're not going to max out everything if you're not doing a lot of high end velious raiding for a significant time or have permanent access to raid buffs so starting points can require some consideration depending on your class and your goals.

OP what do you mean when you say endgame?

It is a good question what I mean by "endgame." I guess I used that term in two senses. In my first post, what I really meant was will I eventually have to give up the character because they can't hang in the role of warrior meaningfully after a certain point. But I take the comments thus far to mean I won't--all races are viable even at the highest difficulty of content.

In my second post about stat allocation, I used endgame to refer to a point at which characters are maxing out all stats meaningful for their classes. Probably what I mean is with max-level priest buffs in a solid group / raid, will it matter if I spend five of my 25 starting points in STR. I again take the answer to be no.

in the end game race matters less than at char creation / leveling untwinked
