How should I build my genie?

Right now I have a Zeal genie lvl 34 and split my stat points between Str and Dex. Skills are Earthflame, Holy Path, Gale, and Celestial Sword (or some **** like that).

I'm a multi-path 3str/2dex BM and I'm not sure about how to go about the genie...I'm more than willing to spend 3 mirages to get a new one or use the pink genie they first gave me if that's better. Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't know exactly what affinities you need off the top of my head, but I can say a few essential skills.

    Tree of Protection. BM's and Barbs love this skill.

    Second Wind. I've seen a lot of BM's using this, though the heal seems a little week (In my opinion at least)

    Absolute Domain. Your genie has to be a bit higher level to get this, but it's definitely worth it.

    Figure out what affinities you need for those there.

    Never tried gale, but Celestial Sword absolutely sucks.

    Get True Emptiness... it's an Arcane/LA's worst nightmare. A pure STR genie can one shot most robes and LA users in the air. It also is spammable and can provide a 2500 hp magic shield every 20 seconds, no matter how low your genie's energy bar is.

    Occult Ice - extra stun. Very nice.

    Absolute Domain is a high level genie skill... at lvl 34 you might not even be able to get it. 4 second squad immunnity. Can keep you alive till your charm cooldown refreshes.

    Balance... magic shield. More effective than True Emptiness's shield, but costs a lot in both stamina and affinities.

    Tangling Mire AoE pdef debuff, great for grinding. Also has a slow effect. STR based.

    Extreme Poison... dex based damage amp.

    Lighting Chaser? I think this is the skill with an aoe stun, more people have been using it lately, but I have no experience with it.

    Second Wind - STR based instant healing. A nice alternative to Tree of Protection, but unless you have a pure STR genie, the amount of healing isn't that impressive.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    PS: I have 50 points in str, 46 in vit, 10 dex, 15 mag on my genie... after 40 it takes 2 points to increase 1 point... anyway, with those number 2nd wind almost heals me up all the way... maybe a little more than 3/4. Has save my **** so many times... tree of protection is pretty sweet too... but honestly i like the instant heal better than the 20 sec regen, but that one heals me all the way. True Emptiness, just kicks ****! Maybe it was my eyes playing tricks on me but i swear it hit a critical of 3200 when i was dueling someone LOL
