Lifegiver / Troubadour - PotD Build Advice

[Azalen]

I tried to look this up but wasn't really able to find the things I am interested in so this is my first topic on the forums

 

I just played PoE I on PotD for the 1st time and want to continue the 2nd game. I think I have a generally good understanding of the game mechanics by now and I want to play with Eder, Aloth & Pallegina because from my PoV those are the main companion characters. So I figured I'd play the healer/buffer role with my main character and will be able to slot in a 5th random companion of my choice all the time.

I settled on Lifegiver / Troubadour after some research but I am kind of lost which attributes to pick up. Obviously I would need high Intellect for buffs and high Might for healing. But how high? Stats to dump could be Constitution (like 8 points should suffice because I wont be a frontliner anyways?), Resolve (only argument against that could be that I am longer CCed?) and possibly even Perception (because buffs and heals can't miss? Do I need Perception at all?). But I am not sure what to make of Dexterity (obviously my auto attacks would be weak but do I really gain that much from more action speed if the important stuff I do is spellcasting?).

Or is this attribute-dumping even good in PoE II? (In PoE I I played a character with only 3 resolve and 6 con and it worked like a charm for a backline dps character)

I hope my thoughts aren't too retarded and I am interested in your opinion.

Welcome! Don't sweat too much your stat spread, particularly on such a build. It will do great whatever you choose. I'd go with MIG, INT, DEX because Druid has stuff that generally scales so well with MIG + INT and DEX is generally a good investment. Usually I go crazy on PER, but in a party and as a Druid/Troub you will have a lot of can openers to help your spells land. You could do 16/16/16 and 10 everything else, really you don't have to minmax.

If you dont do anything else than Healing and Buffing, then Per dont really matter at all, like you said. But some offensive spells can quickly begin seductives, especially from the druid side. For this reason, keeping Per to Average (10) instead of Low (<7) can be useful.

Average Dex (between 10 and 15 before clothes) is enought for this kind of build (in my concern I mean). 

Con and Res can also be lowered under 10 (8 for both) because they are useful for defensive perspectives and survivability (if you gain a lot of health per 3s/6s, it is like an Aftermath Con buff, at less for the health pool).

You can raise 2 stats at this point, Might and Int, like you said before too. 

The point of the post is about Per : you can respec the character and change his role but not these attributs. So for me, average Per is better than Low for the watcher.
