Magic Lamp Decision
Head to New Canisan > New Canisan Slums > Contraband House. All of the items here are useful, however the magic lamp is an item you can buy and choose what benefit you want:
 * Health
 * Individual: 1000 Max HP
 * Everyone: 200 Max HP to everyone
 * Magic
 * Individual: 250 Max MP
 * Everyone: 50 Max MP to everyone
 * Wealth: 9999 Golden Coins
 * Artifact: Djinn's Ring (Accessory) +10 to ATK, DEF, MAG, MDF, AGI, LCK and "Prevents all status effects and resists debuffs. Blocks critical hits and resists pushback."
 * Skill
 * Individual: +3 skill slots
 * Everyone: +1 skill slot for everyone
 * Intelligence: +5 Intelligence

Personal Opinions:
 * The Health and Magic options are probably not the best choice. You can use Cracked Spheres for these instead.
 * The Wealth option is just not worth it. By time you complete all of the post game content you should be swimming in money.
 * The Intelligence option is potentially only worth it if it is the only way for you to hit 175 or 200 intelligence.
 * If you're tempted by the skill slots, I would recommend waiting until you've completed more content. Everyone can gain a fair number of skill slots as rewards for completing content. You may find you do not need more.
