Stat Cap Gain Method

You can use this technique for any stats that you want.

The first thing you have to do is get to the skill cap. If you're rich, just go around to NPC's and buy up skills to the point where you have 700, but DO NOT buy the skills you are going to be using to gain stats. That would be self defeating. If you're not rich, mark every skill as up and get to the skill cap as fast as possible.

Mark one stat-gaining skill up, take it to 10 and stop. Then mark it down and pick another skill in the group and mark it up. Go to 10. Repeat.

Strength:Herding, Animal Taming, Mace Fighting,Mining, Arms Lore Parrying.
Dexterity:Snooping, Hiding, Lockpicking, Fencing.
Intelligence: Evaluate Intelligence, Meditation, Spirit Speak.

Since you're only going up to 10 skill, it really doesn't matter what you use for skill gain.
