Ara Fell skills and auto battle

[QueenDiclonius]

What's the best way to distribute my skill points? And what exactly does the intelligence skill do? I know the description says it increases attack effectiveness but I don't really understand....
Also when using auto battle, I've noticed no potions are ever used. Does it try to mimic my regular battle style, or how does that work? I don't have anything equipped that prevents healing.
Thanks!

Auto battle should only be used in fights you expect to be trivially easy; the AI isn't very good. They'll just try to kill the enemies as fast as they can.

As for stat point distribution, I've actually seen a lot of different builds. I like to go ATK/AGI/INT on Lita, with modest points put in DEF and MAG. I build Adrian like a tank; DEF/ATK. Seri Kesu is straight INT/MAG with a bit in AGI/DEF. And Doren I basically do everything but ATK evenly.

ATK increases normal attacks, and the power of some skills (you'll see ATK+, INT++, etc, the + indicates how much the ability scales with that stat). INT increases ability damage and magic defense. DEF increases physical defense and increases health by a bit. MAG is your Mp (resource used to use abilities) and AGI is how often you'll be able to act in battle relatively to other actors (so someone with 100 AGI can act twice as many times as someone with 50 AGI).

Hope that helped!
