Just to throw my opinion into this. If I had to start over, I would go erudite. The reason being... stats will be worked out in the end, but Aura Sense has got to be the greatest ability ever, for picking off the healer at the beginning of a fight.
I've mostly overcome the Agility issue since I am now a level 17 High Elf Ranger. My items have added several points to my Agility which is now in the 40s. Unless I'm group fighting several enemies, I never even have to pay attention to my blue bar as I used to at lower levels. Thanks for the opinions everyone.
