15/16 Con.
18 Int.
9-13 Wis.
5 Cha.
Hmmmm... I see, then a revision on the WIS.

STR: 10 ----> 50 is not enough, 70 is the bare minimum I tend to find. It is irritating when my Mages cannot move because they casted Melf's Minute Meteors and they cannot move because it was too heavy for them... ... I personally choose 12 STR.

DEX: 8 ----> AC is not really important to a Mage because he/she is not meleeing and missile attacks can be dispatched by the tanks or a Stoneskin.

CON: 16 ----> For maximum life.

INT: 18 ----> To memorise as many spells as you can and to be able to cast level 9 spells.

WIS: 10 ----> Any lower and you get Lore penalties.

CHA: 8 ----> Any lower and you get negative reactions.
