I know there are lots of guides but the information I need seems to be locked away in some dark recess and I haven't been able to find it.
Can someone help me with an optimal stat build up of the genie? I'm not sure if all of them are useful or whether I should ignore str. or dex. Should I build vit. and mag. equally?
Any thoughts or useful advice is appreciated.

    depends too much on what skills you have on the genie, and how you normally use it. you'd need to provide many more details of your playing style and genie skill set.

    The only genie skill I consistently use is holy path. I've been looking for some good skills to use as well, but it seems more people have posted about them already. Though if anyone had suggestions I would appreciate it. Mostly I just pve. I like to solo as much as possible, I'll jump in a run sometimes and then fill whatever role the party needs. I have a good grasp of all the skills and plants and use them appropriately.

    Well, most of my genie's skills benefit from dex, so I find a dex genie to be very useful. I gave my genie 50 vit, 50 mag, and all the rest is going to dex. Its skills are holy path, expel, tree of protection(gonna get rid of that soon cause I hardly ever use it), absolute domain(this skill doesn't matter how you stat your genie), and fortify. Skills that I'm considering to get are badge of courage after seeing how useful it was in an rpk video as well as some tw videos, and I guess maybe bramble rage if I have the extra spot, not mostly for the dmg, but I could really see when the channeling interrupt would be useful.

    All of these skills are improved by dex. Other good genie skills are occult ice, frenzy(situational), extreme poison, cloud eruption, occult ice, wind shield, and there are a few more.

    Just look over this page to see what genie skills you would find useful and what attribute strengthens them.

    If you want a good tw genie add as much vit and mag as possible, but I would suggest a seperate genie for pve and pvp, and if you can, seperate one for tw.
