    MND for WHM

    Good mornin´ !

    Iam right now using Light Staff and Dark Staff when i level,
    a friend synthesides me a Tact Wand+1, do i have any need to use this
    weap in fights for MND +5 INT+5 when i go as WHM/SMN or WHM/BLM?
    The 18 added MP are cool with i use Dia II at start of fight (with full MP)and then switch to light staff so it only cost me 12 MP.
    But do i really need MND+5 for something when i have Light Staff?
    Thanks for answering

    you can use MND if you find your Slow and Paralyze getting resisted, otherwise you don't really need it.

    Interesting topic. I wondered that myself, what DOES MND affect in terms of spells and such?

    I'm pretty sure though that with Paralyze you should be using Ice Staff and Slow is Earth... look up the spell elements and use those staves.

    Mind is for enhancing the chance of a debuff landing, no? (didnt someone say that a few posts up? )

    hmmm Paralyze didnt land better with my MND-gear, now iam confused, maybe i just had no luck yesterday ;D...
    the only think i realize is when i use instead of Holy Phial (+3 MND) the Evasion+5 Torque, that i Cure with Cure 4 for 398 and with Holy Phial for 404!
    Well but iam not gonna usa a MND staff for curing since i got Light Staff (+10% Cure)... anything else i can use +MND staffs? as BLM i do use +MND+INT staff in my lower levels (31 now, later staffs) but for whm really no need?

    Basically, once you get to Elemental staves I don't think there's really much of a reason to go back and equip a regular type +INT +MND wand. Just toss on the staff for the element of the spell, and you're good to go.

    as a WHM there's really no need to have anything more than Light/Dark Staves (or the HQ). if you do happen to have the others than they would be better for the corresponding debuff spells than any +MND weapon you can get.

    +MND is suppose to help all WHM debuffs, i'd say it was bad luck too.

    if your Cure IV is not capped you should still use as much +MND as you can get (though not in place of the Light Staff).
