There is only one set of allocation points. This is for classes. You get 30 points and 30 points only.  Separate from allocation points, when you switch from class to job, your base stats will alter to reflect your job. (Example: In 1.0 when you switched from GLA to PLD you got a huge boost to VIT and MND but took a hit to your INT stat.) I image that Arcanist will have an about even MND to INT ratio, with INT maybe coming out a little higher. When you swap to SMN, your base INT rating will increase. When you swap to SCH your base MND will increase. Again, this is separate from allocation points. _________________________ Show Content Endgame RantAnd as far as min/maxing goes, the simple choice is: do you want to be 15 points "behind" in both classes, or do you want to be 30 points behind in the other class? That's really what it comes down to.  You will never be exactly equal in stats to another player. Ever. Even if you role a Duskwight Elezen and pump 30 points into INT for your SMN, you may still be behind a random SMN that has full Lv50 materia'd gear or Darklight or Allagan or Labyrinth Gear who allocated their stats 15/15. You may be ahead of them in stats, who knows. But the stats don't really matter in endgame as much as people think they do. Why? Because nobody can see your stats. In endgame you're looking for two things in order:  1) Player skill and flexibility. You want a player who knows the role(s) of his/her class(es). You preferably want a player who can effectively play multiple classes. Which if you've rolled full INT for your SMN, you've effectively said you're unwilling to play the other half of your class. 2) Their gear. This will at least give you a guess as to what their stats look like. Not so much, but you at least wanna have something to work with. The whole point of endgame is to get better gear anyways so you're not really judging. What you're doing is seeing how they wear their gear. Are they wearing good gear for their content level? Are they wearing appropriate gear pieces? (ie full leathers on a PLD ruh roh) Do they show some level of attempting to improve their gear? (Materia'd gear or gear that reflects research on their job etc.) Sloppy gear usually is taken as a lack of dedication to that job.
