I agree about the dual wielding staves. I usually pick up the shillelagh in the Monastery, and from then on it's a staff for each hand. If you decide to do this, don't forget to put a point into dual wield each level, or it won't work.
Everyone else's info is pretty on target.
I do put some points into Speed (it helps early one before you get the Haste spell), but I agree about Str and Dex. If you don't invest in strength, there's not much power to their punch.
