What would be the best cleric stats (str, con etc) for NWN?

Well WIS is nice for spells.
Wheter or not you are going to fight meele or ranged I'd say a decision between STR and/or CON vs. DEX.
But a cleric also (IIRC) uses CHA to turn undead at least.

I'd properly make a (if human)
12
10
13
10
16
10

but that is a personal oppinion.

I don't think the difference is that big - I can't remember if a Half-Elf gets bonus with bows - if so I'd proberly increase DEX on the expence of STR and/or CON.

But it all comes down to personal playing style.
Many people like to play clerics from the back ranks with range weapons.

My esteemed and correct opinion ( :D ):

Elf Cleric (proficient in bow & longsword)

Str 10
Dex 16
Con 12
Int 10
Wis 15
Cha 9

That's all that 25 points get you...
