Hello everyone, just wanted a few suggestions for stat builds.

 

I was thinking of aiming for:

STR: 1 (+6)

AGI: 95 (+5)

VIT: 93 (+7)

INT: 100 (+10)

DEX: 120 (+7)

LUK: 77 (+2)

62 stat points left over

 

The pluses are from level 60 job bonuses. I want at least 100 VIT for survivability, 120 DEX for Temp. Dex boots and 77 LUK for Arc Angeling Card. I've heard 100 AGI gives you immunity to Bleeding status but I can put a skill point towards Offertorium to get rid of it instead. If that is the case, I can take points off AGI and dump it towards INT.

 

Experimental build:

STR: 1 (+6)

AGI: 1 (+5)

VIT: 93 (+7)

INT: 120 (+10)

DEX: 120 (+7)

LUK: 77 (+2)

206 stat points left over

 

Also, does AA Card require 77 base LUK or can I do 75+2 LUK from 60 job to get its effect?

AA requires 77 base luk.

100 to 120 int wont increase your heal/sp too much to be worth the huge amount of points invested. Those points on agi instead would be a lot better imo. Not only bleeding, but agi also grants resistance/immunity to sleep. You may even drop you agi lower, because for status immunities what matters is the sum from base and bonus stats. In this case 5 from job bonus and 17 from canto candidus bonus, you can leave your base agi at 78 and still be immune.
Rest of the points dump into str to get more weight capacity.

I see. Thanks for the reply.

 

Also, I am currently using an AAW with Heal 4 enchant which increases my SP consumption by 10%. If I also want to use Spellflow Shadow Armor set (let's say +9 Armor, +7 Shield, +7 Shoes, which will equal to +12%) will an AA card be enough to not run out of SP? Or should I not use +SP consumption equipment?

[Ashuckel]

It depends only on your ability to manage your own sp.

Ashuckle is right, AB's is a class, even without AA card, able to handle it's SP (really party dependent). Stats wise, only pro I can think of for getting 120int is the BIG bonus to SP recovery, not to mention it's doubled with your AA card.

 

I'll go with around 60ish agi and the remaining in str. Personally don't trust all these immunities, rather wear a nightmare card for sleep immune. And if you're bleeding, just clearance yourself and rebuff.

[Ashuckel]

Yeah i went 72 agi on mine and rest str, the other stats are same as OP

[PervySageMarty]

I suggest you may as well get that luk up to 78 since you might as well get that +1 matk since it would be a shame not to take the opportunity that arises. Heal bonuses from iwstats is wrong, after 100 int, ever 4 int is a bonus to heal rate, totalling a good healthy 5% at 120 from those 20 points.
I would also suggest at least 10 str or more (in increments of 10, highly recommend 50 str!!) to increase carrying capacity, bgems may be 3 weight a piece but carrying alot (200 minimum i always say to every AB), and more gears for swapping, and slims, and warg -_-tail and siroma tea's and mino briskets, and increase hp/pots, and vitatas 500, and concentration pots, and straws/iris/yggberries takes a toll on you.

at 175 i think its either 120 int 1 luk or 100 int + 77 luk if using AA.

 

str i think is a must too, even with enlarge weight limit 10.

 

if you're bleeding, either use a cure free (1 weight) or offertorium 1 then -> magnificat.

 

one thing i like about moderate to high agi is that the skill delay is really noticable on instacast/fastcast spells.

[SeraphChaos]

Thanks for the reccomendations.

 

On the topic of Canto Candidus, what is the max amount of AGI that it can give? Does it give 12 (from Increase AGI) + 6 (job/10) or is it 17 as Ashuckle says?

 

And the current build I see is:

STR: 54 (+6)

AGI: 78 (+5) (+17)

VIT: 93 (+7)

INT: 100 (+10)

DEX: 120 (+7)

LUK: 77 (+2)

3 stat points left over.

The formula correct

At job lvl 60 canto give +18 agi

[Ashuckel]

forgot  about job 60 :v, yeah is 18 total

You should be able to cast skill fast enough to avoid using Spellflow with 120 DEX, Temporal DEX boot, and Sacrement. On the other hand, you can actually use Spellflow piece to reduce SP consumption. Just don't wear the entire set. Only wear the piece that gives 2% SP cost reduction, and if you need cast interruption in some scenario (rarely) then you can switch out and wear the full set.  I leveled my AB to 175 without any cast interrupt gear on DEX Boot and Spell FAW. My AB was a glass cannon in TI, but I always keep KE on myself and never tank a mob. No issue.

 

 

 

I'd personally go 120 DEX first to wear Temporal DEX then the rest goes to INT at level 99. Just leave un stat points there and you can point it to 120 once you become an AB, or you can just reset. Fast cast time is more important than heal amount in TI party. 1 VIT means you shouldn't be tanking, but casting so slow will ensure that you will be left behind. Everybody seems to be on the rush to 400 counts. Anyways everybody have their own AB playstyle, so I just tell you what worked for mine. 

You shouldn't need Arc Angeling if you're not using something like +9 Recovery Light. When low on SP, you can always rely on sanctuary. Temporal DEX makes Sanctuary cast very fast and you can even do it in a moving TI party. Santuary then Offeritorium gives a very nice healing at fraction the SP cost. Nevertheless, Arc Angeling is cheap right now (400m or so), and they do come in very Handy once you reach bio4 as you will be spamming heal non-stop.

Another alternative to AA card is to use 2x Pendant of Harmony. They gives out same effect as AA card without 77 LUK requirement. It stacks with AA card, if you really need that much SP regeneration.
