I've heard something about this one, but I haven't heard the exact stats. My guess would be: aim towards a high Agility, a good Strength and a decent enough Willpower. At the start of the game, always put at least some points to Agility when leveling up.
I've heard, however, that a caster class is much more efficient in this game, even at the beginning. Quite logical since you start out with a Light Heal spell(at least the caster classes, I tried out, started with one) and can get acces to the spellmaker pretty much when you step out of the first dungeon(assuming you're not planning to rush it).
