extra point skill distribution

[KoroushSensei]

im a dragoon. can i put all the extra skill points towards strength or only a certain amount

[AskaRay]

Put em all in.

STR - Dragoon/Monk/arguably tanks
DEX - Bard/Machinist/Ninja
MND - Astrologian/White Mage/Scholar
VIT - arguably tanks, see above
INT - Summoner/Black Mage
PIE - lol

I'm (sorta) kidding about Piety. Some SMN or BLM may put a couple points in for some extra mana... I hear some healers do this too but not as often. And points are separate for each class so you'll have a different point pool if you, say, pick up Conjurer later or something.

Black Mages may put a few points in to PIE to allow for an extra Fire spell before flaring/astral/umbral/enochian in their rotation. Because of how BLM damage rotation works, PIE actually benefits them when used this way. For any other class, it is almost useless.

Generally, you put them in your primary damage or heal stat. Otherwise, you can allocate your attribute points anywhere and any time you wish, up to the maximum number (35 at lv.60).

Dragoon isn't affected by PIE because TP remains the same regardless of level and generally benefit from secondary stats you can't improve by leveling (only items).
