I'd sacrifice Ground Smash for Improved Basics/Enhanced Basics because it isn't useful at all, and there's no point in maxing it now that there's Brandish, Crusher/Fury, and Charge Blow in 3rd Job in my opinion.

[quote=devanteb]wow wow no man u have to max that. it prevents bosses from using cancle weapon attack along w/ other buffs and lets face it w/ Brandish now a 3rd job skill u will never use those first job skills agian. even when u are doin balrog the skills by themself are fine if u kno how to time damage reflect[/quote]
ok sorry i was just thinking about balrog for people that can't time tehhe

during sader shouldn't max magic crash

instead put two points into magic crash

and the rest into enhanced basics

which should have been given points early

because slash blast hits 3 more monsters for 50% less damage with the basics

[quote=bello99]You forgot combat mastery I don't know about you but I'm not taking any hero on a boss run who dosnt have it maxed. as for maxing rush lvl one is enough that and your not really gonna waste your time with bf anymore(he got nerfed hard)[/quote]

true true ^^^
@the forum -->Don't think Mon mag should be maxed so early

Enrage should be before before monster mag

id prob do...cuz heros should be good what they were made to do...boss
enrage makes a hero a hero
mw more damage
rush move big hairy things with big feet
mon mag helps/slows down training. depends on ure style and location
achilles tank ht tail?
Fit hero's will 5 sometime around level 160 (HT) if you plan to. HiddenStreet says 3 min cooldown at level 5

===Edit===
Yeah after combat mastery.

[quote=SinamonX]dont you max HP increase 1st in 1st job?[/quote]

Max HP skill when maxed actually gives 20% of yourMaxHP, so it is recommended after maxing Power Strike and Slash Blast.

[quote=jitterbug118]Um. You need to max improved fundamentals...+120% on power strike?[/quote]

That's right, Enhanced Basics/Improve Basics is recommended, because it helps you take on Balrog since 3rd and 4th Job skills can't be used there IIRC.

The only skills I'd sacrifice are either Rage or Ground Smash (Most likely the ladder since Crusaders get Brandish in 3rd Job and Brave Slash in 4th Job. PLUS! 250% Damage to 6 monsters > 300% Damage to 3 monsters hands down.)

But I'd save Rage for level 70 since we have Ciders if you want to have 20 Attack Power early on.
