    Int/Mind mix up question

    Quick question for you white mages since I couldn't find the answer anywhere.
    I read it was suggested to put a lot of attribute points to mind for better healing but once I hit 43 I realized I was actually raising intelligence.
    By that I mean, under attributes if I go to add mind it will raise intelligence and when I tried to raise intelligence it actually raised mind.
    Is this a common problem that I just haven't caught?
    (Thanks guys...hopefully I posted this in the right place)

    Do you have Cleric Stance up? The ability flips your Intelligence and Mind stats.

    Confirming Espon's post.

    The ability Cleric's Stance will temporarily swap your Mind with your Intelligence. Any points you invest into Mind while the ability is still active will appear to be going into INT.

    people also seem to forget to mention that cleric stance reduces your healing magic potency and increases your attack magic potency, so never heal with cleric stance up. Any stat points put into int as a whm or sch are a complete waste.

    If you did in fact add points into intelligence, there's an item you can buy from your grand company to reset your points.

    Focus on Mind. Your gear alone should get you to the health amounts you need in order to survive the content you're completing.

    I figured it's better to only focus on mind but I heard there are some players who do some vit in order to get HP up over 3500.
