Perception is the ability to sense the environment and is a prerequisite for several disciplines, including heightened senses, aura perception, spirit's touch, eyes of the beast, summon soul, invisibility, and true sight. You must raise your perception around or above 50 to gain these perceptive disciplines. A player concentrating on disciplines will likely devote points to intelligence (first priority) and wits (another priority) before perception. Check the discipline menu when playing Vampire and allocate trait points based on the disciplines you desire most.
If you're pursuing the most advanced disciplines, you'll need a high intelligence trait (up to and above 70). If you're strictly melee and only using low-level attack, defensive, and healing disciplines, you likely don't need to be the sharpest vampire on the block. Save the experience you might devote to intelligence and continue to bolster your strength, dexterity, and stamina traits. Monitor the blood discipline pane and, if there's a discipline you desire, consider spending the experience to raise your intelligence trait to meet the requirement.
The wits trait bears importance for both melee fighters and high-level discipline users. For melee fighters, a high wits trait provides a slower progression toward becoming frenzied, which could certainly help in hectic melee battles where each hit from the enemy drives up your frenzy level. For the high-level discipline user, wits is a requirement for high-level disciplines (though not as much as intelligence); if you desire the most powerful disciplines, expect to spend enough experience to raise wits around or above level 70.
