Focusing on physical stats sounds useful. However focusing at all three mental stats doesnt sound very useful at all. Who wants focus on DIS? Would be nice to see an INT/WIS focus option, but INT-WIS-DIS sounds like a feature that wont be used?

However I may have missed something about DIS usefulness though...

Anyway, I like the ability to focus on physcal.

You still can use the old stat/stat system, so int/wis is more than possible.

I believe that the old stat1/stat2 setting means:
primary: stat1
secondary: stat2
where primary > secondary
(based on my own experience - for me primary stat rises much faster then secondary one)

while the new "physical" setting sets even focus for all physical stats?

So equal setting for int and wis is not possible.
To achieve it you have to:
1. set for example int and wis
2. earn experience
3. switch to wis and int
4. repeat

I really wish there was a good help file about it. I think there is too much mystery about basic game mechanisms.

I believe so too

Correct. There is no way to set equal focus on two stats. The new physical/mental allows you to set equal focus on first three or second three.

Why can't we just go back to the old system, where you entered the numbers all by yourself?
Having 70 in focus for one stat was imba, but otherwise it was pretty cool.

How about changing it so we can set 100% of our xp into physical/mental?

For me and many others having immortal or supreme mentals offers very little, its more or less just a waste of experience imo.

Or maybe allow us to alter our stat prefs, so we can put 0 xp on at least one stat?

Oh well, just blabbering.

I would like to know what setting gives me more experience overall for strength, dexterity and constitution:
"physical" setting or "strength and constitution" setting?

If you chose to pref STR and CON, your DEX stat would receive a lower pref than if you chose PHYSICAL.

If you chose to pref PHYSICAL, your STR and CON would receive a lower pref than if you chose STR and CON alone, but your DEX would obviously benefit more than otherwise.

Hopefully this makes sense.
