(Newbie question) Ability scores

First character, just hit level 20. I started with 13/12/10/8/20/13 and at level 10 put +1 into Wis and Cha so now 13/12/10/8/21/14.

From what little I've seen of builds, it makes more sense to balance the primary and secondary stats rather than crank Wis up to the moon. Is that correct? I have no idea how I will play this later and just don't want to mess it up too badly. :)

Thanks.

    I also dont get why many peopls balancing that...
    I got 25 Wis, 21 Cha, 17 Str and I run very fine with that - tested others on preview, but I ran the best with something around that.
    Also running very well on livegame with that, just met another few people, who told me I did some epic heals...

    At the end it's about your team and yourself.
    If you got a nice doing team, you will aggro pretty less - on my known team Im usually last, or 2nd last in DMG Taken at the end of Dungeons... Just by a well doing tank and minimum one CW who has 1.5 eyes around me.
    Even on other teams, if you know how to handle your class it runs kinda fine - as long as your mates got some brain...

    On your character sheet you can check your ability scores, just where you set the points - hover over the shortcuts and they'l show you whats behind these.
    In my opionion, just do, what you think you need to do.

    Over all, one day there will be two things:
    You want to respec your character and/or there are some bigger changes on skills (coming with free respec tokens) - last thing will happen latest, by upcoming paragon paths one day...

    What you lack in particular stats, you'll make up for with gear anyway.

    I play a Dwarf Cleric, 24 WIS 18 CHA 18 STR, I've been running CN full runs for months and MC full runs since I gained access to it, and never had a problem. Stop worrying about the little details and start enjoying the most challenging class in the game.

    Actually that depends. Your initial stats and race cannot currently be re-rolled, so paying attention to them is important. Some DC PVP builds are made more or less viable by starting stats and race.
