    Welcome to the game!

    You should check out the Psychic Subforum, they've got a few guides and those should help you with your stats.

    It's generally a bad idea to add points into Dex when you're a magic class, as Dex does nothing for mages since magic never misses. Unless you're going Light Armor build which....<_< Well, read the guides. I've never built a psychic myself so I've not got the expertise on how to stat one. =P Good luck!

    Heavy Armor - HA: Good for Tanking classes, good for tanking melee
    Light Armor - LA: Half i would say of HA/AA
    Arcane Armour - AA: Mage classes use this, good for tanking mage

    You can find good builds for psychics (note that it's spelled "psychic", not "physic", if you try to search on that term) at the PWI wiki at the Psychic Common Stat Builds page.

    And to add to/clarify what Tonei said:

    Arcane Armor (AA) protects strongly against magic damage and weakly against physical damage, has a low Str requirement and a high Mag requirement.
    Heavy Armor (HA) protects strongly against physical damage and weakly against magical damage, has a low Dex requirement and a high Str requirement.
    Light Armor (LA) protects moderately against physical and magical damage, has a high Dex requirement and a low Str requirement.

    Magic classes usually use AA because it doesn't take as many points away from their Mag attribute, which allows them to maximize their magic damage and skills.

    Hope that helps!

    While the dex requirement for light armor is higher than that for heavy or arcane, I'm not really sure 1 dex/level really counts as "high".

    AA: 1.5 mag, .5 str/level
    HA: 2.5 str, .5 dex/level
    LA: 1 str, 1 dex/level
