I tried to write this in a way in which it would be directed to everyone, but instead I’m just going to direct it to Sunny, since she started the Bishop and will most likely finish it. If you’re not Sunny… pretend you are when reading this.

I restarted the Bishop, and tried to recreate its original image, the way you did. I went to Maple Island and got the relaxer, then I started making her a bishop with Cody.

While distributing AP, I made the mistake of thinking: “Hey, I know LUK is always supposed to be three more than your level, so I guess I’ll just keep pumping the points into it until it’s 164.” I caught myself at 158. But before leveling, I had Cody give me the basic AP of a level 70 magician, so she basically had the AP of a level 70 magician, but at level 7, and all the AP gained from each level was still being given. In other words, up to level 70, it had double the normal AP, and all the extra AP went into INT. So the extra LUK isn’t as much of a waste as it sounds (though it’s still a waste).

On to SP.

This is kind of annoying, and a little complicated, so I’ll try to convey what I’m thinking as clearly as I can.

You know that once you finish leveling to 161, Cody can give you as much SP as you want. So you can max every skill, right? No. Wrong. He’ll give you as much as you want, but you can only spend as much as you would’ve normally accumulated. So there’s no way you can max every fourth job skill there is, because you’d have to be level 200 do to that. (I ran into this problem on the Shadower, too.) So I came up with a little theory that may or may not work, and assuming you know more about the Bishop, I’d rather you spend the SP on the rest of the fourth job skills I haven’t already maxed. I’ve already maxed Bahamut, Genesis, Angel Ray, and Big Bang, and I’ve put one point into Resurrection. Anyway, here’s my little theory:

I figure that if you don’t spend points on certain third job skills that aren’t even going to be used, those points can instead be used on fourth job skills, thus allowing us to have more points in the more fun techniques that we’ll all be using more often. (I only thought of this after I had maxed every second job skill except Holy Arrow.) So this is where I am hoping to rely on your knowledge of Priestdom. If you can decide which third job skills really won’t be necessary as a Bishop, then you can invest those points that would normally be used in third job on fourth job skills. There are certain fourth job skills that I really am not sure whether or not we will want or need, so I am hoping you can make the executive decision on those skills.

This was pretty redundant and superfluous, eh? Let me know if something needs clearing up.
