Remove 5 From All
Most character builds will tell you to "remove 5 from all". During character creation, the client automatically places 5 ability points in each ability (strength, constitution, etc). However, there are dump stats in Shadowbane, and you often need to spend these points on Starting Traits instead, so most build makers recommend taking these points out prior to selecting traits.
Note that changing your race or class will "reset" the ability point values, meaning you will have to "remove 5 from all" again.
Redundant Spells
See Do Not Train for a list of spells and powers which are simply not worth training on any build.
