Hey Basil! :o So recently I got hacked but the hacker as pretty kind/stupid because they left me about 7m in mesos and alot of equips that I had so I can sell them. So I made a soon to be crossbowmen. I was then wondering if its even useful to put any SP into Focus. In short is Focus useful or not and how many points should I have in it?

don't get FA and max it using the extra points in first and second job you can find a good skill build here Don't believe anyone who says blessing is better, even if you don't use focus always you can eventually micro it with SE which you will always train with

Well I put 6 into blessing so I'm guessing thats a mistake? But if they still give out those free SP and AP resets for 30,70,120 then I can fix it quickly.

what level are you? if you're low enough I'd just start back over, just leave it on 3 I think of whatever the minimum is for eye of the amazon

i believe your only option is focus or eye (or maybe blessing?) of the amazon, im not sure about the name but it only adds accuracy, as opposed to focus which adds accuracy and avoid. so dump what's left after DS, crit, the one that adds range and put it into focus, then max it in second job with the leftover sp

The differenve between 15 focus and 20 focus is hardly noticeable. I should know since I messed that up during 2nd job and didn't max it. And you can always put your points again when big bang and the free sp reset arrives. That's what I'm doing :D

Focus > Blessing of the amazon. Bowmen RARELY miss because of their high acc but the avoid is VERY IMPORTANT because of their low hp.

Just restart. The hacked account isn't safe. He can always come back and hack you again 3 months later. Xfer everything, then restart. And you should have 9 focus by the end of 1st job. Then you can max it with leftover 2nd job sp.

Avoid is very important. Newts barely hit me with my Icarus cape and focus are on at the same time.
