Mille Aiguilles or Tempest?

i was wonder, as always for a new class we get 1 mastery book. to get it to 30. Which ones really worth it?
-Mille Aiguilles: Hold the key you map the skill to in order to attack repeatedly. You can also move left and right while using this skill. At Master Level: Damage: 130% per hit, Number of Hits: 2, Max Enemies Hit: 6. Master Level: 30. [b][/b]

Tempest: Hold down the key you've mapped the skill to in order to create an expanding tornado of cards around you to attack enemies. At Master Level: Damage: 400%, Max Enemies Hit: 8, Cooldown: 12 sec. Master Level: 30. [b][/b]

I, and I assume everyone else, always puts 1 point into all 4th Job skills right off the bat. At least the attack skills.

[quote=tkirsch]yea... tempest is one of the most usefull skills while taking zak/chaos zaks arms off. it hits all of the arms and pretty fast, decent damage.[/quote]

Worst to level up I mean. 1 point wonder
Since leveling up Aria/Expert would also increase Tempests damage as well as ALL your other damage, no point getting Tempest first.

[quote=Seref]Tempest is his 2nd worst 4th Job skill, worst and most useless skill being Soul Steal. Personally I'm getting Impeccable Memory Book, but that's because I plan on maxing it first so I can have level 30 Sharp Eyes for 100% crit!

But I'd recommend this order: Aria>Impeccable>Cane Expert[/quote]

[quote=maj48]This is just like mercedes

Tempest=spikes royale (high dmg AoE with small cooldown)
Mille aguilles=ishtar ring(fast weak attack high dps)
Cane expert=dbg expert
Pray of aria= ancient warding (30% dmg and 30%def/1500 hp)
If phantom is a tanky character and u think he can take hits max expert but if youre desperate for the defence max pray of aria. Then max the other one. Then do mille aguilles and finally tempest. So get the expert book since youre maxing it first.[/quote]

that's 30% ignore defense not 30% defense

[quote=TimeToFly]Don't they cost 27?[/quote]

The NORMAL books cost 27. The Special ones are books that are like, 100% Chance from 10-30.

Personally id choice Tempest as well. As i learned from my Merc. maxed mastery first but didn't upgrade the others past 10 rly wasnt the best idea. my dmg was consistant but lacked real dmg. if that made sense.

I would just put one point into tempest, then max the buff skills/passive skills along with ult. drive.

For sake of training purposes I would pick Tempest. It's a short cooldown and I think it would prove to be very useful at LHC / Stronghold. It's going to be a personal first max for me.
