Scholar - INT or MND?

[YuiYuuki]

I Leveled my Scholar today to lvl 36.
I gave all attribute points to MND for better healing.
But i saw this on a wiki:

The most important stat for the scholar is intelligence, which increases all magic potency for this job including healing magic potency.

The mind attribute is not used by scholars to determine healing magic potency.

is that true? if yes can i reset my attribute points?

MND increases healing.

On your Scholar, you'll want MND.

That is an outright lie, whoever wrote that is either a fool or a troll. All of Scholars gear pushes Mind, right up to our Relic weapon. There is absolutely no doubt that Scholar heals use Mind.

And yes, you can reset your attribute points, the Grand Companies sell an item for 10,000 seals which you can use to reset.

That lie was written by a WHM! trying to mislead new Scholars!

I have a question along this subject: does the grand company point reset item also refund all of your points that you spent as an arcanist?

I had a guild member tell me that arcanist and scholar have two different sets of bonus points to allocate, so I assumed it was okay to put points into INT as an arcanist. I'm starting to think he was mistaken.

Jobs share their class bonus points. So if you put all points into mind then your scholar will have better heals but your dps will be slighty gimped as an ACN or if you choose..Summoner. Me personally I play my Scholar for dungeons and Summoner otherwise. I I've decided to split my bonus points 15/15. Has worked out so far.

Yes, it resets ALL of your points.
I got mine 2 days ago because when I was Arcanist, I threw all my points into INT.
Saved 10,000 seals and finally was able to put all my points into MND.

Also to the OP, having tried both, there is not actually a big difference given by your points but you will deffo get better heals by putting points into MND.

I would say put all into int. as a scholar you will need to use Cleric Stance to swap you int to mnd. That way if you also have a smn your dmg won't be gimped.

MND is by far the best stat for cures, it increases curing by insane amounts.

Please dont do this, if you plan on being a scholar. Besides the fact that cleric stance reduces your healing output, swapping mnt/int when most of your gear comes loaded with mnt seems pretty counterproductive.
