what stats do i need? what cross job skills should i use?

[Squiggles]

Seconding Narfalicious. Pick up 4 rings such as: Dated Bone Ring, Dated Copper Ring, or Dated Brass Ring to boost the accuracy by 8~12 points.

Cross-Class Abilities:
Lancer gets an ability like Invigorate which increases your TP generation for a while.

Archer gets an ability like Quelling Strike that boosts the TP generation of your next attack and in a party setting, reduce some of the threat your move will generate.

I would probably get the Conjurer ability for Cure for those times when you just need the extra heal between using Second Wind.

do i need stoneskin/sentinel, etc like some people have suggested?
