[QUOTE="cptg1481, post: 996903, member: 5360"] [b]DEX,INT, INT, DEX[/b] Well, in terms of game play and mechanics I think that DEX will do you more good AC and all that... However, I gotta go with the last guy, from a role play perspective the more intelligent the elf the more, well,...superior he can be. You can then out smart the paladin when you want and or when you don't want you can hold back your idea's (which are inherently superior until just the right moment and be the hero time and again with the solution in a pinch. I think that would be a fun way to play an aristicrat...aloof, manipulative and a total spotlight ranger. A "spotlight ranger" is an army term for someone who tends to take the easy way out when no one is looking while they have the unique ability to make themselves indepensible in the eyes of thier leaders/peers by reserving most of thier energy for when all eyes are on them and they can save the day. Also when given mundane tasks and missions beneath them by others they tend to find a way out of it. Intelligence is the best defence against being obsolete. Aristocrats in my view want to be the answer man (or elf), the leaders etc. don't let that pesky paladin goody two shoes steal your spotlight there ranger!!!! [/QUOTE]
