If you arent going to abuse magicka cost reduction then put some into magicka.
if you are going to abuse cost reduction just go for health and/or stamina.

I would do either a 1-1-1 or 2-2-1 ratio for your MHS.

With that in mind, all my magic characters stop at 200 Magicka and Stamina and the rest goes into Health.

If you find yourself conjuring maybe once or twice per fight at the most, mainly sticking to your sword as your primary means of attack, then i would do a 1-3-1 ratio

If you're playing vanilla, Atronachs (and all summons, except reanimated) have fixed levels, so they will be very strong at early levels and weak at high levels. Just fyi.

Bound Sword is super cheap. Bound Bow is pretty expensive early on, and Battleaxe is in between. Not that it matters much in the long run, since you can make all spells cost no magicka with Enchanting.

Also, you might want to be careful with Soul Stealer. It steals *EVERYTHING*, so if you have a hard-earned Grand Soul gem and kill a Skeever, you'll end up with a crappy Petty soul in your Grand Soul gem, unless you have empty lower-level gems on you.

With the Perks for cost reduction, every Spell in the Conjuration Tree except for Thrall Spells will be reduced to 120 or less Magicka. My Bound Sword Dual Wielder has a Daedric Cuirass of Peerless Conjuration that brings the cost of all of the Spells below 100 due to a 25% cost reduction. The extra Magicka for a Conjurationist can be obtained through Guild Quest Rewards, especially from the College of Winterhold.
