Depends. MA's bow is pure magic but their daggers aren't, so it depends how you want to play it. Most people say to max out magic damage, but I prefer to balance phys and mag attack. Augments do the rest.

I have a 'mostly stength' build on one account. It has only like 320 magic attack. I decided to get the Acuity and Attunement augments for him and see how he fared as an MA on BBI (since I got the Blackwing Bow to drop). You know what? He owns, just like every other MA does. With the augments and magic-enhancing gear his magic bow damage is way over 2,000 (2,400, iirc), and this is a strength build.
