I'd actually read those earlier (but after I'd already started a character, so I didn't know that you needed to do a custom class) so I have been watching my stats and forcing a few with pointless casting and hammering. I could go back and roll a fresh character (again) but the more hours I play, the less I want to undo those. So I'll leave that until I've taken this one as far as possible.

The Spellsword class lets me get +5's if I work on the Armorer skill as much as possible for the Endurance, and Intelligence can be obtained by using a lot of "cast on self" spells, but I'm still trying to figure out how to use spells for offense without levelling too soon.

Since the Willpower skills including Destruction and Restoration are all majors for that class, it means I have to avoid all the other major skills to get the Willpower +5. That includes Block, so defense is tricky. Wierd that a Spellsword can't afford to use any swords for fear of not getting a good level-up, but at least I can use spells!

Strength is hard to get, again because of having to avoid major skills. I also need to do some "Alchemy for fun and profit" to start building up my cash, or I'll never get a decent horse and houses.

Resisting add-ons for now, but if I hit a known bug, I may go for the patches.
