Tips

Having 6 or more agility is recommended. With a low agility you won't have many action points, and therefor cannot take aimed shots at the head, eyes or groin. There is no difference between having 8 agility versus 9 agility when determining the number of action points your character will have.

Unless using drugs, it's better to have an even number in agility. An odd number in agility will only increase your armor class, which is currently of little importance.
