Elvaan BLM Question

[Aurege]

When i buy rings, armor, and other stuff, should i focus more on things that increase MP or INT? Im guessing intelligence since my mp isnt too low; its the same as a hume whm. Any experienced elvaan blms opinions?

I would say that you should work on your, Int. If you run out of Mp your fucked but if your Int is high enough you will kill the thing before that happens.

I always say Int because you can always heal your mp. You can always stop fighting whatever your fighting and heal (Hopefully you do this while in a party and not while solo) But you can always do that. And at time you will have to. Shit, Wait until you get some really strong spells you will see, they just eat up your Mp. But you get them strong and your mob will possibly die before you have to worry about that.

i believe among all importers, there are three black mage that reached level 70, and all of them are elvaans

sheila peacemaker kirashi

sheila will say (i don't know what she will say)

peacemaker will say that it is important to have both set of equipment so you can switch between them with macros

kirashi will say that he's very lazy and is not willing to have both set of equpiments therefore he goes for some of the more balancing equipment.... elvaan mp is not high... it's pretty low... but kirashi thinks that they are enough to finish jobs. kirashi has 715 mp at level 70, +20 if he upgrades his yet 400k cost belt to a 500k cost belt. and +10 more if he gets phantom tasudama thingy. he has about 61+ 22 int at level 70 and + 3 more if he gets phantom tasudama =(... the int difference really doesn't make that much a big damage difference. kirashi probably have 20 less int than a taru his level however the damage of our strongest ancient mb will not be differenced for mroe than 100 (that's talking about out of 1200 damages), a taru might beable to do 1300 while kirashi will do 1200... soooo... because of his laziness he suggest balanced equipment... (they are expansive though)

I think ill go with the int+2 rings til i can afford the +3 ones, mp+ earrings, RSE(could i wear that til i start getting af?), and focus on int with any other stuff. Id rather my spells do more dmg then have more mp.

Also, should i sub rdm or whm? rdm would give me more int but less mp and it would take longer to get cure spells. whm would make me have higher mnd then int (0o) and give me cure spells early. sorry if questions are n00bish^^

I think overall MP matters more.
I use macros to switch once MP is drained, or if a monster is too strong in resisting (HNM).

I know this wasn't on the topic, but thanks for saying that. I was stuck between being elvaan, or taru taru (sorry if i didn't say that right). I want elvaan..because I could always go back and be a warrior if I wanted to...thanks so much!
