SCH attribute points question

[Alisi]

Long story short: I'm new and planned on my Arc going SMN for the quest line. I put all my points into int with her and had my healing fun on my WHM. Last night I decided to try healing on my SCH and had lots of fun. Move aside WHM! (For a couple of runs, at least.) Having an extra healer that doesn't share my GCD is FUN! I'm so cool with micromanaging my lil' fae healer.

Anyway, am I okay with all INT for my sch (up to level 36)? If I take cleric stance from my WHM, will the -10% in healing be made up by all the MND? Or should I just not worry about it? Luckily with my WHM being just about my level means I'm generally decently geared (leveling her exclusively via duty finder.)

If you plan on using sch in any serious content (coils, ex primals, heavensward) the recommened is all points in mind. I personally have been toying around with all my points in piety for the 300 mp, 900 aetherflows and increased mp regen.

I've recently started playing as SCH on the side with all points in INT, the difference for me is roughly 100-200hp per physick which isn't a whole lot, that said, if you ever want to go full MND the item that lets you reset your points from your Grand company is only 250 seals now.

And no, healing in cleric stance is a big no no - don't worry about it.

INT is fine, and you can always reset stats for cheap at your GC. I'm not really sure what you mean by your cleric stance question but you shouldn't cast heals in cleric stance. No feasible amount of INT will make up for the healing reduction.

Ah, the first site I read about how to reset stats said the reset thing was 10k in seals and I only have like 500 seals atm so I was trying to think of a way around that huge 10k number. Also, most SCH also say that mnd is the most important stat and it makes our heals stronger, and to not put anything in either of the others, so if figured since I hadn't put any into mind that having everything in mind would compensate for the healing loss by being in the stance. I realize the stance is for easy of questing and such. But that's all been cleared up now.

Thanks ya'll's! <333333333333

This is true but if you intend to play both SMN and SCH without going through the hassle of resetting stats every single time you switch, missing 30 MND on SCH hurts a lot less than missing 30 INT on SMN.

Good to know! Thanks!

carry reset item with you

and switch back and forth from full mind to full int and vise versa when you switch between smn/sch

anyone made a macro for this?

There isn't much to question when it comes to SCH attribute points

All MND unless you have a specific reason for not doing so; reset your stats with the very inexpensive Keeper's Hymn if you play SMN as well.

INT is a complete waste for SCH; VIT is wasteful unless you need X HP to survive a specific raid attack and don't have the gear to reach it (not really a thing now with our level of gear + Echo); PIE is wasteful since you don't need all that much and have tons of it available on healer gear.

MND is the best thing, as has been stated, but I like the look and "feel" of extra HP so I go full VIT. I don't run Ex Primals or Coil though.
