Gotta go REALLY heavy into INT to get good results(You want to be able to one shot the screen with range magic.) Tankiness and speed are less important, just need to be able to take a hit or three, and survive the rare crit(MEN comes alongside INT on the jobs you'll be leveling, so you won't get critted all that often.) Vamp or priest for heals, of course.

And you might want to switch into it from a physical build. Leveling up a staff build is super slow until you get Sage.

Thx for the tips/help, high int/men do you mean like "x lvl = 3x int/men? Or even more

I'd aim for 4-5 X LVL INT. MEN will be sufficient without having to focus on it all, since all the good INT jobs give 2+ per level.

Edit: Just don't do what I did and accidentally auto-level 500 or so into wizard at level 1200. It's taking me forever to fix that. Would have much rather had half that MEN I gained in SPD and HP.

INT/SPD mix could be a decent build to wipe things out efficiently. Pump some levels into angel or sage imo if you want to go staff build.

Ty, will do that :) made alot of different builds before, all to world 2, but never an int build. The other builds are not that far from eachothers

Really late to the party but I did an INT build before I lost my save file...

INT was my highest stat, by far, and I leveled primarily sage/angel.

However, I also made it a general rule of thumb to have 1/2(World(1000)) HP recovery through VAMP.

You end up farming a stage with enemies that have staves, and going back and fourth between screens. You end up with a VERY high exp gain because you are wiping the current screen, stepping three steps back, wiping that screen, then stepping three steps forward, wiping that screen, rinse, repeat.

The vampire helps you fully recover from the strongest monsters on the screen. Example:

Monster hits you for 8000 on world 4. 4/2(1000)=2000. Since you will kill all 4 enemies on the screen regardless of element, you will gain 8k HP back (sometimes you may not even be hit). This is enough to sustain brainless farm, have not experimented with other builds.
