Hyper Skill Theif Guide

I see these scattered everywhere for each thief class, so I decided to try my hand at making a guide for all of the thief classes new to hyper skills.
These are just my observations and is by no means completely correct, so please, give me your criticism so I can improve this to be useful to everyone in need of it.

[header]Stat Enhancing Passives (SP)[/header]
These are given out every ten levels past 140, excluding level 180, to every class.

Useful SP for Thief classes in a rough order of importance:
[quote=SeeMeTwice]
Hyper Critical Rate: Passively increase your critical rate by 10%. [required level: 198]
Hyper Luck: Passively increase your LUK by 50. [required level: 140]
Hyper Dexterity: Passively increase your DEX by 50. [required level: 140]
Hyper Max Heart Point: Passively increase your HP by 15%. [required level: 192]
Hyper Max Magic Point: Passively increase your MP by 15%. [required level: 186]
Hyper Physical Guard: Passively increase your physical defense by 500. [required level: 165]
Hyper Magical Guard: Passively increase your magical defense by 500. [required level: 174]
Hyper Strength: Passively increase your STR by 50. [required level: 140]
[/quote]

Keep in mind if you don't want to waste any points on skills that are seemingly useless to you, just save them until you unlock the next useful addition!

Your priority should be:
140: [b]Hyper Luck[/b]
150: [b]Hyper Dex[/b]
160: Hyper Str (DBs/Shads only)
170: Hyper Physical Guard
190: Hyper Magical Guard [i]or[/i] Hyper Max Magic Point
200: [b]Hyper Crit[/b] [i]or[/i] [b]Hyper Max Health Point[/b]

[i]Because shadowers can differ so much in attacking style due to funding and simply the way some people prefer to attack, their hyper skills are majorly up to you.[/i]
With so many different ranges, there are many different ways to best use or not use points (nate especially), so use what you need and don't use what you don't.
Shads have to make some tough decisions on these and it has to be you who decides which you want more or less than another.

Your priority should be:
140: Meso Explosion - Reinforce (wait 3 levels) [i]or[/i] Boomerang Step - Reinforce (wait 9 levels)
160: Assassinate - Reinforce [i]or[/i] Boomerang Step - Reinforce
180: Assassinate - Bonus Attack
190: Boomerang Step - Bonus Attack [i]or[/i] Meso Explosion - Enhance
200: Assassinate - Limit Canceller [i]or[/i] Boomerang Step - Extra Target

Because DBs got really dumb PP, it should be obvious what our priorities are. Phantom Blow first... then you can dump into whatever you like.

Your priority should be:
140: Phantom Blow - Reinforce (wait 9 levels) [i]or[/i] Bloody Storm - Reinforce (wait 3 levels)
160: Phantom Blow - Ignore Guard (wait 8 levels)
180: Bloody Storm - Bonus Attack (wait 3 levels)
190: Phantom Blow - Bonus Attack
200: Whatever you haven't added onto yet.

[b]Once again, PP is widely player's choice and these are just suggestions. Protip: If you have an unused point, but haven't unlocked a skill that is useful to you, save it! It's worth the wait.[/b]

[header]Attack/Buff Active Skills[/header]
These are given out at 150, 170, and 200 to each class.
You get a point at 150, 170, and 200.
Add the point to the respective skill.
? Profit.
