From what I know, upgrading only "accuracy", will affect your char since u wont be able to wear higher weapons/equipments which require other stats. Can anyone (who played the beta) tell me about those high lvl equipment so I can have an idea of what I should upgrade when the game comes out. Or perhaps, u can tell me how you upgraded your char like example: 4 acc + 1strenght and how did it work out? :D

I think this is something that is going to have to be a bit of wait and see. What endgame items are there, what build do you want to use?
Plan on deleting your first char. You never get it right the first time. With no respeccing you can't make a mistake.
I'll probably horde my points as long as i possibly can until i learn what needs what stats and how much. I'll probably take the d2 way..more life always better than more dmg. With just enough other stats to wear my gear with +stat items.
Of course i'm focusing on endgame pvp. If you're pve only then I don't think it's as important to get everything perfect.

The way i did it was 3 acc and 2 str and every other level I would invest in 3 willpower and 2 into stamina. It worked pretty well since I usually met the req for gear I found and had enough willpower for any energy intensive skills like beacon.

Stamina was my lower focus because well, if mobs get that close to me then I'm pretty much screwed as is.

with more accuracy your crosshair will display less recoil and you will shoot more accurately (where *you* point the crosshair at that is). i didn't play the beta but initially i'd go something like 3 acc/1 sta/1 wil and just add +5 strenght on levels where i think i absolutely need it, see how that works out. tough the above does mean 3 levels +5 acc, 1 lvl +5sta and 1 lvl +5 wil as i have a tendancy to work with rounded numbers :P i'll adjust where needed.

as for skill points i'll just put them at first in the skills i don't have any doubts about. most likely i'll use tactical stance a lot to increase accuracy, so i'll start with filling that up. or, i might decide that i want overshield first so i'll fill up tactical stance as far as needed and then save up for overshield.

i've played many MMORPG where it was impossible to respec and i've only managed to not make a fudgeup twice :p i'm going to aim for 3 times with this game.
