(This might conflict with an older post I made, but I was ignorant of the horrible STA conversion at 60)
It really isn't a terrible option, Deajay. Once Tecmos gets his 4 pieces of insidious and sky neck (so basically best stuff I can find short of VP), he'd be at 212 int and 267 cha self buffed. I'd drop my opalline earrings for black sapphire probably, but I'd still be 2 points over the charisma hardcap and 12 points over the int softcap... and that's without any VP gear and with no velious gear. An erudite or a high elf, who has higher int+cha than my dark elf enchanter, would be even "worse" off if he put all his starting points into int and cha.

But for most people thinking of starting an enchanter, it will be many months before they would be where Tecmos is, and years (?) before crown of rile-ish VP loot or any velious loot.

If I personally were making an enchanter today, I'd probably end up putting starting points into stam+cha in some balance, except for humans cause of their crappy starting int.
