point allotment

so where are you going to put all your points?

I did INT/MND/PIE/VIT, with more in the magic stats than in VIT. It's really up to you how you want to assign them since you can't screw yourself up like before, of course don't put any points into STR =P. There are some merits into putting points into DEX if you solo a lot for the slight block rate or parry increase.

MND + 23, VIT + 17, Pie +5. I didn't do INT b/c if I wanted to focus on healing and defense. Ill go THM if i want to nuke.

I haven't put all my points in yet - but I'd say mostly MND and PIE, then some in VIT... why put in INT as a healer?

+23 mind +22 Vit

Extra healing potency is a good thing so put all I could into mind, and rather than splitting up the rest of the stats I put the remaining points into vitality. When combined with vit gear swapped out with a macro when buffing it, you can squeeze out a few extra enhancement bonuses for protect and stone skin ^__^

Going with 23 mind for sure, but still torn about Piety of Vit, 1vit=1hp and 22 hp just dosnt seem that appealing to me, but the extra MP does, and after testing the "Damage Taken" with vit, I couldnt even see much of a change so really torn between the two atm..

I guess the enhancement magic bonuses could be nice, but does anyone know how much of an actual effect it has?

4VIT = 1 Enhancing Magic.

I did 23MND 22VIT without even a second thought. My SS absorbs usually 1 more hit than most other CNJ I party with and my Protect gives 1-5 more Defense.

Being able to throw out a nuke in some cases has helped quite a bit (I help take down the nearby Infernal Nail in the Ifrit Battle, for instance). Your nukes are also pretty nice with Cleric Stance. CNJ is pretty dang versatile.

VIT - 11
MND - 17
PIE - 17

Something like that I think.

Here is a screen shot with protect, and three +7 vit rings on:

Doesn't make much of a difference so its up to playstyle. One thing can be counted on though, another mage over riding your buffs <..<
