Final point for Fighters:
The Strength stat is important. For Fighters put it at 18. You will then get a second number (eg. 18/93 or 18/21) This only happens for the Fighter class (single or multi). The higher the second number the better (18/00 is the best you can get). You get more bonuses to damage when you hit an enemy if you have a high second number, and be able to carry more loot. If you roll what seem like really good stats but when you put your strength up to 18 you only get 18/05, then reroll until you also get a high second number. This takes a bit of fiddling about, but it is worth persisting to get good stats.

FYI, with the third edition rules, you no longer get the 18/ anything. It is just 18.
