I have no news yet but we should have some soon. In the mean time, I'm going to have to kill some hopes and bring up new ones.

Using will is a must for the class because currently it only affects fighter.
The 2nd stat candidates would be Dex, Int, and Luck.
Those who think elves need buffs would want Dex to be the secondary stat.
Those who want it to be balanced for all races would want it to be Int or Luck based. However luck is hard to obtain for new players so it's probably out of the picture.
If it changes it would either be Dex/Will or Int/Will. If enough elves QQ it would be Dex, if players want balance it will be Int
It's more important to balance out the races before the stats.
Giants - 5 Talents
Humans - 2 Talents
Elves - 1 Talent
That is far more important than.
Str - 4 Talents
Int - 2 Talents
Dex - 2 Talents
Will - 1 Talent
HP - 1 Talent
MP - 1 Talent
SP - 1 Talent (and Doppelganger)
That being said, Elf supporters are in favor of Int+Dex, not Will+Dex. Will+Dex would be Human supporters. And to me, Int makes more sense than Will. This IS magic, unlike real ninjas. Why Will?

Also There was a pet in the trailer next to the male npc and pets on the startup screen. Any news on those?
Just because you see an animal doesn't mean its a pet. You wouldn't in real life see a jaguar and say "Oh, pet!"
Also, the red line and that post says nothing about changing to possibly Dex+Will. They say nothing is final despite being on a nontest server, and things may be rebalanced and changed. They don't say stats won't change, but they also don't say they would change stats. For all you know they'll just rebalance skill damage, or only stat type, or both, or neither. No hope has increased/decreased.
