I created a warrior recently and saw that the VIT and INT are both 16 while the rest are 5. Is there a way to change starting stats or is that how the game always starts when you make a class?

I guess they are fix, since I started a warrior myself and got the same values.

I have the same thing, guess it's really the standard for the game. Although it's quite unusual considering that warriors start with so much high intelligence, it deviates quite from other rpgs in that regard.

Yes, it is quite unusual. But actually I like it more, in a magic world "martial characters" simply use that power in a martial way; so they need mana and intelligence.
