So I am having a very hard time with the point buying, esp for classes whose powers are split over 2 abilities when it comes to landing shots.
Only 1 class/race can have both +2 apply to-hit, and thats the d-born palladin. But that is also the most MAD class anyways.
Taking 16,16 i find I can end up with a char (after racials) which has 18,16, and either 12,12 or 14, 12 (assuming a secondary stat gets a racial).
Or, I can dump one of the to-hit abilities and severely limit my in-class options, but take a 20 and have 2 nice secondary stats. For classes like the cleric, taking a 20 wis REALLY limits your choices, whereas taking 20 str leaves multiclassing options.
