Mind
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia
Abbreviation: MND
A stat that determines the effectiveness of Healing Magic spells, White Magic Enhancing Magic spells and White Magic Enfeebling Magic spells, and is thought to have an impact on a character's Magical Resistance.
Mind also plays a large role in determining the damage of Chi Blast, Banish, Holy Bolts, and some Blue Mage spells such as Mind Blast and Magic Hammer.
Mind also has a slight increase in your overall cure potency. It also affects the formula for Cure V ((Healing magic skill / 3) + (MND * 1.5) + 430)
Associated with the element of Water. Many water-based items add MND to a character's Stats. Example: Leviathan's Rod
