How do I put attribute points for SCH & SMN?

[Aurelinaus]

After having my 30 points sitting in VIT for a while now, too lazy to throw them back into MND. I'd say throw them in INT as a Sch you probably won't notice the 30 less MND when you are fully geared.

Just arrived at level 47 last night with my Scholar (and Summoner). When I was an Arcanist I put my points into Intellect. After becoming Scholar my points went to Mind. I play Scholar as the main of the two. And as a healer, for me it's a nobrainer. Mind all the way So far I kept the points in Intellect which I put in back when I was an Arcanist.

If you use SCH more then all in MND, if you use SMN more then all in INT. If you want to use both, then us the Keeper Hymn (from GC for 250 seals each) and change the points to the appropriate stat for the class you are about to use.

And whatever you do, do not listen to the advice of people who say INT on SCH as it doesnt matter, if you are a SCH, then you are a healer and MND is your primary stat. If you decide to DPS whilst healing, you use clerics stance which makes the 30 points in INT absolutely obsolete. (Source: end game SCH, T13).

They meant that SMN with 30 less INT is way worse at their role than a SCH with 30 less MND.

First of all i assume you are responding to me.

If you are not then disregard this.

If i was referring directly to someone on this thread, i would have quoted them in my answer. However, i have not. What i was doing is referring to the general advice that a lot of misinformed people give about putting all bonus points on SCH into INT as it doesnt matter. This advice is common enough to give the OP the advice that i have.

And i still stand by it. If anyone advises you to put all bonus points into INT if you main SCH, then they are wrong.

Don't neglect the effect of MND on SCH damage, however.

If I played both jobs more equally, I'd just carry more Hymns around since they're dirt-cheap. I would want my SCH to be able to have both the best possible healing + damage and my SMN to be able to have the best possible damage at any given time.
