General Overview

Nice of the princess to invite us over for a picnic, eh Luigi?

Stats and Traits

Luigi, look! It's from Bowser!

Status
Status Point	Point Distribution	Notes
Str	1 - whatever	Provides some extra carrying capacity if you so desire, but this can be mitigated with Gym Pass (6286) + Cart.
Agi	1 - whatever	Usually not relevant early since you need those points elsewhere, but can be increased to 80~100+ later.
Vit	100+	We are quite fragile :< So everything helps, especially in the early game.
Int	120+	yeag.
Dex	120+	This is rather flexible due to the amount of Dex we get from Improve Concentration and Owl's Eye.
Luk	1 - whatever	Provides a little bit of Status Matk.

Trait Status
Trait Point	Point Distribution	Notes
Pow	0	Pow does not contribute to our damage, so we don't put any points into it.
Sta	0 or 36/72	You are most likely to get hit by spells rather physical attacks. But you can put some points into it if you want.
Wis	36 or 72	See above.
Spl	110	yeag
Con	110	yeag 2
Crt	0	Similar to Pow, It does not increase our damage, therefore we don't put points into it.

Status Overview

If you want a complete overview of Status and Trait Points, refer to this page: Stats.

But basically for Status Points:

• Str: Increases Melee (and marginally Ranged) Physical Damage. As a caster, we don't need that. However, Str also has the benefit of increasing our weight capacity. This is usually not needed since we have access to Enlarge Weight Limit and Pushcart.
• Agi: Increases Aspd and provides us with some additional Flee and SoftDef. You'd think increasing our Attack Speed is useless, however having an increased Attack Speed let's us finish our casting animation faster (any animation your character does is tied to Aspd) and allows us to cast, well faster. However with most 4th Job Skills, we are also bound by ACD.
• Vit: Increases our MaxHP by +1% per point. It also increases our SoftDef and also Healing Item effectiveness.
• Int: Our main Status. It increases our MaxSP, our SoftMDef and most importantly, our Matk. It also slightly decreases cast time by a tiny bit.
• Dex: Very important Status. It decreases our cast time by a lot and also provides us with a little bit of Matk and Aspd. It also slightly increases our SoftMDef.
• Luk: Increases Critical, Flee and Perfect Dodge and also, Matk. More than Dex in fact.

For Trait Points:

• Pow: Increases P.Atk, so it's useless.
• Sta: Provides a lot of Res, which reduces the amount of Physical Damage we take.
• Wis: Similar to Sta, except it increases our MRes which reduces Magic Damage.
• Spl: Very important. It increases our S.Matk which is basically Matk but better.
• Con: Increases Hit, Flee and most importantly S.Matk. Oh, and P.Atk, but we mainly put points into it for more S.Matk.
• Crt: Increases Critical Damage and Healing. Neither increases our damage so we don't want it.
