AP Distribution
Like Warriors, DEX has a limited role in determining accuracy, but level has a far greater effect. For this reason, little to no AP should be spent in DEX, depending on funding. Cannoneers should apply all AP on STR which is their main damage stat. To use most equipment and weapons, the requirement is DEX = level, but level 10 Pirate Blessing gives 15 DEX, second job Pirate Training adds 30 DEX and Monkey Magic adds 20 DEX, so you will have minimum 69 DEX by level 70 without equipment or putting any AP into it.

Skill Build
Considering Recovery only heals about 2HP/second when fully leveled, most people will not select this.

 * Level 4: +1 Three Snails (3)
 * Level 5: +1 Nimble Feet (1)

Cannon Strike only hits one, and is replaced in second job, so it does not need to me maxed. Alternatively, you could leave Cannon Blaster at 16 as it is also replaced in second job.
