Pug/mnk bonus points question

[NinjaTaru72]

Hello. I've been doing pug/mnk and enjoy it a lot, and I feel quite well, even only being lol 35 so far, we that I'm not bad at the job. NowI know I've been gathering bonus points as I level, and have been wanting to make sure I properly use them where they are needed. With that said, what skills should I put them into? How many on each and so forth. Thanks in advance.

STR all the way.

For your future reference of all class with their primary stats:-

Melee DPS (MNK/DRG) = STR
Healer (SCH/WHM) = MND
Magic RDPS (BLM/SMN) = INT
RDPS (BRD) = DEX
Tank (PLD/WAR) = VIT

Of course, some people may put in points differently depending on their preferences, but the above holds true for most people with their cookie cutter build.

What the first response said: melee - all strength all the time.



Just to clarify the above post, SCH primary is PIE not MND. Whenever you add a member to a party they give a bonus to their primary stat. When you add a sch to the grp you get a pie bonus.When you add a whm you get a mnd bonus. Contrary to popular belief you do not need to add 30 mnd to sch to heal the hardest content in the game. The mind you get from your gear is enough as sch. My raid healer heals t5 with bonus in pie and I heal all the extremes with points in neither mind nor pie lol (have em in int just b/c i like playing smn and dont feel like spending/farming seals)
