Enchanter Starting Stat Allocation

[cd288]

Saw some people discussing it on the Reddit and one commenter proposed some options for High Elf that I was wondering about. Also wanted to get thoughts on High-Elf versus Erudite and starting stats for Erudite.

High-Elf Options:
- Traditional 25 CHA/5 INT
- 25 CHA/5 STR
- 20 CHA/5 INT/5 STR
- 20 CHA/10 INT (or, alternatively, split evenly between CHA and INT)

Erudite Options:
- Traditional 25 CHA/5 INT
- 25 CHA/5 AGI
- 20 CHA/5 INT/5 AGI

I know people say that you can cap INT easily in later expansions, but for the Classic era is it easy to cap INT at higher levels? If not, how much more mana does 5 or 10 extra INT really give you? Is it worth it to sacrifice CHA for it?

Do you think the 5 STR for a High-Elf is important for quality of life?

For an Erudite, are they really lagging far behind in the CHA department if you put 25 into CHA? Does the extra 10 CHA (if you went 25 CHA on a High Elf) really make that big a difference?
