A well-built, interesting character as it is - I'm not a fan of "optimizing" characters in ways such as those suggested by AlexanderHowl. If everything is built around the concept of "high stats are more cost-effective" , it starts to look like Hero System and their universal break points that lead to homogenous character design. To each their own, but give me a character with a cool idea and lots of skills over something built to maximize efficiency.
