I personaly like allotment as is
However......I think instead of assigning points as we do now(1 point, even if it doesnt give us +1 attribute)
We should be able to assign +1 attribute at a time and itl deduct the correct ammount of points for it

that alone will speed up the process alot.

as for people who hate having to redo it multiple times....well we made that choice when we decided to be mage and meelee(i say we cuz i gotta do it too)
