    well, except for the point you gave to magic everything is fine IMO, and you can easily reset that point later on in the game. the important thing if you are going for tank build is to give enough str and dex for next level equip (in your case for level 19 dual hammer and level 20 heavy plate) and the rest goes to vit.

    LOL why would reset one point?

    your build looks great so far as a typical tank build. b:victory

    1 point in mag will hardly hinder you in the long run. leave it alone and dont bother with a reset at all. the coin/cash it would cost you doesn't justify gaining just one more point in either dex/vit/str - unless you reset mag down to 3 (which i can't verify if this can be done - only heard about it) then you come out getting 3 points to one of those categories - vit if your a tank. this will be 51 extra HP you're lookin at. I dont know off hand how STR affect def/attack nor DEX your evasion/accuracy - but you gotta think, "does the cost justify the benefit?" I'd say no. Just keep on keeping on, take a look at the build chart stickied in this section to keep yourself updated as to where you should be at point wise, and dont put any more into mag.

    It could also be equipment adding the stat, in which case there is nothing to worry about at all. =3 Depending on if you want Tank/Hybrid/DD build depends on where you will set your stats. You'll need minimum Dex for equips, regardless. If you're going tank, minimum STR as well and pumping as much as possible into VIT. Hybrid finds a balance in VIT/STR so that you can tank well and still deal decent damage. DD build is more into STR. Not many barbs I know go that path.

    Yes, stats can be taken down to 3. My magic is 3, but I restet it from 13. This is my first time playing an mmorpg, therefore, my knowledge was 0, now it's... something. Point is I had misplaced 10 points :) Don't waste your cash for 3 points, not unless you can afford... 5 bucks, if I'm not wrong, for the 3 stat points.

    Also, keep looking at the next armour piece available, next weapon available, etc and aim to have the necessary stats for the gear as it comes available. If you wanna go pure vit with your leftover points, that's up to you. Read the sticky!
