DEX : for blocking, accuracy, and parry
MND : Healing magic potency and more damage
PIE : for more MP and Magic Evasion
DEX my affect block rate and accuracy, but it's not enough to be worth putting points into, IMO. With the new Divine Veil, Aegis Boon and Outmaneuver, you can force a good amount of blocks.

PIE is in the same boat. The amount of MP you get is 1 to 1, so it's not worth it for that. You don't really get enough M.Evasion to matter from the (at most) 23 piety.

The real question is:

1st: STR or VIT?

2nd is definitely Mind. More healing magic potency and it enhances your Flatblade combo. No question there.
