Most of your skills are Unda affinity, and Unda affects your maximum HP. No matter what, you want points in Unda. Unda/Pyra: That's 5 points in each every ten levels. One typical way to do this is to put 3 Unda, 2 Pyra at level five, then 2 Unda, 3 Pyra at level ten, and so on, alternating. Pyra is chosen because of the +3 intelligence bonus it gives, thus the increase in effectiveness of skills.
