after i got to Lv 75 about a month ago, i've kind of put my BRD on hold. doing quests, missions, leveling other jobs, etc. eventually, i'd like to get back to improving it and i'd like to do some research to help me plan what i want to do.
1) Merit Points - where are you putting your Merit Points (Singing Skill, Wind Skill, CHR or Max MP)? all in one place or spread out?
2) Skill vs CHR - I've never owned a Wind Torque or a Minstrel's Coat and the only time I considered resists a problem is against Aura Statues. Even at Lv 75 with around 60 CHR from equipment, it seems like this is the most resist i have ever gotten on any mob (once or twice per XP Chain vs once per hour or two). will Skill make a difference or are Aura Statues just annoying like that? i don't mind having Skill+ stuff just to help me with Merit Point Parties but i wouldn't want to invest in it if it doesn't matter.
3) 2 x Melody +1, Terra Staff, Apollo Staff, other Elemental Staves, Monster Signa, Wind Torque (depending on answers for question #2 of course) - in what order would you get these? already have Dark, Earth and Light Staves.
4) this is kind of a n00b question. does Light/Dark Threnody help Light/Dark SC resists? i got to Lv 75 in a couple of really long Magic Parties so my experience with the Lv 3 SCs is a bit limited. i use the Threnody for the MB but often see the SC effect gets resisted. should Light and Dark Threnody be used for the SC? at Lv 75 most BLMs don't get their spells resisted anymore. i don't see Fire/Ltg. Threnody helping with the Light SC from getting resisted.
