Alright, you know the dream where you have to give up a stat point to proceed? Is the loss permanent, or do you get it back at some point?

It's permanet but you have a chance to gain many soon. Right before the end you receive many bonuses to make up for it. Unless your a cleric/druid or maybe mage with an already fairly high wisdom take one of those.

Yeap, like alienboy said it is permanent so one has to be wise when choosing. Ie, if you are a wizard don't give up your intelligence!!

Indeed, you loose it permanently... In Hell you can get some stats back though... You can best sacrifice something you doesn't need much. When you use the ring of Human Influence sacrifice one charisma point, for the ring always sets your Charisma to 18 again :)

Headbanger: I didn't get the option to sacrifice a charisma point.

Not only that stat - besides CHR you can't sacrifice strength so no Crom Faeyr abuse later!

I sacrficed dexterity(from 19 to 18) for my elven fighter/invoker, since it only gives some missle weapons advantages, and I don't use those.

EDIT:

Oh and it also gives some extra thieving ability bonuses but I'm not a thief am I?

I think you should be able to choose from all stats. When I got there I really didnt have anything that I could easily sacrifice. I sacrificed some dex cause I was already using the dex gloves.
