Ok so during 2nd job i accidentally put my remaining sp into blessing instead of focus. so i have focus at 11 and blessing at 12. I'm going to have some SP left over on third job because 1. I dont know how useful MB will really be maxed 2. I dont have to max eagle because it'll be replaced by frostprey 3. Thrust is nice but a luxury So should i max focus or does it become obsolete?

*tries to hold off a face palm* theres no point in maxing focus. + 20 avoid whoop dee doo vs MB, thrust *nominates as funniest question of the day*

Dont waste your third job skill points on Focus. The extra 9 avoid wont really help you much.

Focus and blessing are almost completely useless. The only reason to max one of them is leftover SPs from 2nd job. MB>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Focus or blessing- no doubt about that. MB isn't very useful for MMs but it is more useful than blessing, focus or high lvl thrust. Lvl 10+ thrust is useless since you get 10 speed from speed pills (500 meso per 10 mins), 5 bonus speed from MoN and a few more speed from your overall/shoes since 10% overall dex scrolls and 10% shoes jump scrolls add 1 speed.

do you guys even cast it anymore now that you're 4th job or is it just a waste of time?

I have 2 macros I use: One that has Booster and Soul Arrow, then a second macro that casts SE then Focus. ;p

Well, if you REALLY want to max Focus, make Eagle 15, then find 4 SP from either MB or Thrust. I prefer you to not max Focus using 3rd job SP however.

i'd not add focus at this stage. i'd go with a normal 3rd job build. i'll replace focus with SE on my macro when i get SE anyways, so i don't plan on using focus after 120 anyways and since you're so close to 4th job, i say don't mess with it anymore
