In terms of arti's good ones for minstrel include

Shades of mist
Ring of dances
Phoebus necklace
crocodile tear's ring
Maddening Scalars
Guard of Valor

Weapons, usually legendary weaps, sun sword (from belt of sun arti), battler, malice, golden spear, traitors dagger are popular ones.

Some ppl like the arti shields as well, cyclops and athens,

Have to remember that for some of the weapons and sheilds above they have HP or Con in the stats, and swapping to instruments you will lose those bonuses until you switch back.

In terms of capping stats

Con and HP
Str
Cha
Qui


Are the essentials really, Dex is nice to if you can factor it in, and some prefer it as I believe it decreases casting time of AOE mez and demez, better blocking etc, but as the aoe mez has such a low mez duration and gets resisted alot not many minstrels use it afaik, preferring to cap qui for better melee.

Skills, +11 instruments (if you like pets in rvr), +11 slash and +11 stealth
Resist wise, I try to get at least +22 for all of them, some ppl feel that certain resists like spirit can be neglected as only a few classes like spirit masters use it.

Of the toa bonuses i'd try and get spell duration, bonus to AF, and any left over in the bonus to melee, spell range, bonus to stats etc

Quickly typed this up from work, so might have missed a thing or two. My template at present is using 99% template, with shades of mist, ring of dances, belt of sun and phoebus harp artis. I have managed to cap con,hp,str,cha,dex,slash,instruments,stealth and all resists 22+, with a few toa bonuses thrown in. When I get mp will try and factor in the croc ring.

I was reading ont he minstrtel VN Board forums that +dex only affects blocking rate when you have a point or more in shield, or MoB - so when 1.70 turns up and we loose MoB the only reason for adding DEX to a template is to shorten the casting (aoe mezz, demezz) so not really worth it, better to use the imbue points and slots for something more constructive
