    Attack magic potency is better for boosting damage when your INT is at a ceiling.

    INT is better for boosting damage and getting over the resist wall when nuking mobs of higher level.
    I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and ask for your data on this, but fairly certain it has been well established that INT & AMP have no ceiling, and also have no effect on magical accuracy.

    My suggestion to OP: Currently some stats might be working funny, but INT and Attack Magic Potency have been verified as working AWESOMELY. Thread: INT working as intended.

    Get the Lightning Brand with a good INT meld, or Electrum with a good MACC meld. Preferably double/triple melds if possible. No unmeldable weapon is going to compare.

    Hello,

    Some unscientific backing up on this (and I may be in an interesting position to do this).

    I'm a THM who has not put ANY of the skill points into Intelligence when levelling up! All went into Mind and Piety. In Ifrit fights next to another THM who has more INT than me (lots of INT gear and obviously INT attribute points), I notice that she consistently does a lot more damage than I.

    lol, ouch. SE needs to implement point reallocation soon; however, that might actually be a viable setup if you are focused on highest MACC, MP, and Enfeebling Effects like bind on Blizzara.

    That would be so fantastic. You literally could not pull hate no matter what you did.

    Hm...now I'm tempted to make my belt a double...it begins
    Had a friend blow about 4.2mil on a double meld the other day. Good luck on a quint!
