how to spend points, help plez!Follow

comeing back from a break and reseting my points. befor i was just tossing them anywhere, now that game has progressed would like to know where to spend them best. looking to play con mainly with some thm

my con is lv 20, thm 10 with a good mix of other classs. (gld 22 is highest and not likeing the tanking system)

Personaly i find int has little effect right now, i like to put points into vit and mnd and pie. I put all my elemental points into 2 elements and they get good damage, int makes little difference for damage.

The benefits of Int are marginal at the moment, but saying that Pie is a "waste" is completely inaccurate.

Increasing Int raises Spirit Dart/Phantom Dart damage by 0.25% - 0.58% per one point of Int. Sure this is not as big a deal as it used to be now that Dart has a long recast, but the Devs recently mentioned they are considering lowering it (see testing/data here).

Increasing Pie increases the damage of DoT spells (Poison, Bio, Dia, etc), which definitely improve the speed at which you can take down NMs/Ogre/Batraal. According to Kaeko, DoTs are generally seen as the most reliable damage source for mages since they ignore dLvl, have low recast timers, and have great MP efficiency (see testing/data here).

Pie also directly affects the amount of MP recovered from Siphon MP. This is especially important now that the MP costs of Cures/Raises has been increased.

It's a shame that the actual data/testing gets drowned out by all the misinformation...
