Maxing Poison Breath
Hi, I'm making an ultimate f/p adventurer, but since I'm not that familiar with the class, I was wondering if it'd be better to just skip MP Eater in the second job. The SP builds on the stickied guide are either skipping poison breath or meditation, similar to the i/l build of skipping cold beam. However, poison breath seems pretty useful, and I know it will after jump. Considering the nerf for MP Eater, it's not as great, so I was thinking of skipping that, but it means that I'll only have 18 in meditation, fire arrow or slow.
For the third job skills, it also differs from i/ls, wheras you pretty much would want explosion, mist and composition, wheras on my i/l, I'd skip either composition or thunder spear. Should I leave partial resistance or seal at 11?
Thanks for your help!

@RoboDerp4 Yeah, that's what I was planning on doing. Once jump hits, I'll use the SP reset to max breath instead.
@Green4EVER I usually use energizers when I train, and by the time I'm able to LHC, people prefer to use their own attack potions (using meditation would canceling gets annoying). MP Eater's getting a nerf, and as I'd basically only be at 'boss-type,' monsters like LHC/future Henesys area, where I'm pretty sure that you don't train. But if breath's that bad, I'll probably skip that instead. Thanks for your help.
@squire7766 Oh, not a bad idea. I don't think I'll really rely on DoT for damage until bossing, so I think I'll just do this for the jump patch. Thanks!
@aboyinabox Ah, thanks. But the +10 seconds of DoT skill applied to each of them, right? Hopefully it'll be useful in the future then. :o
If you get your SP reset during Chaos, and you have already hit lv 70+, then simply remove all the SP you had in Fire Arrow and put it into Poison Breath. Fire arrow is quickly outdamaged by Explosion, so it really has really little use. Poison breath and Poison Mist's DoT stack i believe. It could (in theory) help your DPM. Its also steady damage
Why the hell would you skip Meditation. It's a free 20 M.Att skill.
MP Eater is very useful as you'll use almost no potions from the time you max it to about 10x.
Poison Breath is useless. Do not max it. It's DoT is very weak and it doesn't last long enough for it to be effective.
