You get it at level 90 from a Skill quest.
[quote=DeeeMon]In 1st job, you should have everything maxed except for either Power Strike or Slash Blast with 11 points into one of them.
2nd job, you should max everything except for Brandish and Soul Blade. 0 points in Brandish and 1 point in Soul Blade or vice versa. I chose Soul Blade over Brandish because Soul Blade hits 5 mobs and is better(more ranged) than Slash Blast, and Brandish gets replaced by Intrepid Slash in 3rd job.
In 3rd job, you can max every 3rd job skills by 120. I don't have a DW anymore, but this is what I would have done:
70: +1 Intrepid Slash
71: +3 Shining Charge
72: +3 Shining Charge(6)
73: +3 Shining Charge(9)
74: +1 Shining Charge(10, MAXED), +2 Combo Attack
75: +3 Combo Attack(5)
76: +3 Combo Attack(8)
77: +3 Combo Attack(11)
78: +3 Combo Attack(14)
79: +3 Combo Attack(17)
80: +3 Combo Attack(20, MAXED)
81: +3 Self Recovery
82: +3 Self Recovery(6)
83: +3 Self Recovery(9)
84: +1 Self Recovery(10), Save 2 SP
85: Save 3 SP(5)
86: Save 3 SP(8)
87: Save 3 SP(11)
88: Save 3 SP(14)
89: Save 3 SP(17)
90: +20 Soul Driver(20, MAXED)
91: +3 Self Recovery(13)
92: +3 Self Recovery(16)
93: +3 Self Recovery(19)
94: +1 Self Recovery(20, MAXED), Save 2 SP
95: Save 3 SP(5)
96: Save 3 SP(8)
97: Save 3 SP(11)
98: Save 3 SP(14)
99: Save 3 SP(17)
100: +20 Advance Combo Attack(20, MAXED)
101: +3 Intrepid Slash(4)
102: +3 Intrepid Slash(7)
103: +3 Intrepid Slash(10)
104: +3 Intrepid Slash(13)
105: +3 Intrepid Slash(16)
106: +3 Intrepid Slash(19)
107: +1 Intrepid Slash(20 MAXED), +2 Panic
108: +3 Panic(5)
109: +3 Panic(8)
110: +1 Magic Crash(1, MAXED), +2 Panic(10)
111: +3 Panic(13)
112: +3 Panic(16)
113: +3 Panic(19)
114: +1 Panic(20 MAXED), +2 Coma
115: +3 Coma(5)
116: +3 Coma(8)
117: +3 Coma(11)
118: +3 Coma(14)
119: +3 Coma(17)
120: +3 Coma(20, MAXED)
You don't really have to follow it completely. First point into Intrepid Slash to help with PQ bosses/other. You should still use Soul Blade until you get Soul Driver. Shining Charge before Combo Attack because Shining Charge's master level is only 10 and because it adds more damage earlier than Combo Attack. Self Recovery can save a lot on HP and MP potions. Save SP in between Self Recovery so you can dump them all into Soul Driver when you obtain it from the level 90 Skill quest. Save SP until level 100 so you can dump them all into Advance Combo Attack when you obtain it from the level 100 Skill quest. Intrepid Slash is next for better 1-on-1 or 1-on-4 damage(you need this for LHC later, if you're going there). Feel free to swap Panic with Coma if you prefer. You can add Magic Crash later for the bosses(I'm not sure if it helps at Manon and Griffey o.o). I'm not sure if it cancels damage reflect for the Black Witch boss, but use it anyways.[/quote]
