What are your preferred skills to put your points into early on that have the biggest impact?

Feel free to break it down by play style: stealth, fighting, exploring, etc.

Consumables can be handy if you know a big persuasion is coming. I just check how many "points" it takes too convince the npc and don't take any unnecessary risks. I've done a quest line pretty early on that unlock me the manipulation skill early. It gives you an additionnal choice sometimes with safe-ish big points. There's also a skill to unlock the choice to bribe I think. didn't invest in it (i want money!) but it is still a possibility.

Persuasion is very useful especially when your trying to avoid a side quest within the main quest. I still stuck at making the choices though.
