I'd go 11-13-6-21-13-9-11 LU or ST, 11 str will give you the longsword for
heavy armour, use scimitar for the ST against light.  21 wit is a given if you
can get it.  Why, three words: SKILLS SKILLS SKILLS.  13 will is low but not to
bad.  9 speed is all any warrior needs.  And the 11 deft will give you all the
weapons you will want and is a BIG break point for deft.

Hmmmm.... this one is tough....  well for a short term i'd try
11-9-17-15-9-8-15 Biff ST.  Use and eepe for up to ARM then go with
the longsword.  I had a monster like this go 5-2-3 before getting
killed in a bloodfeud.  Thats the best i can come up with.
