Which attacking skill to max in 2nd job?
Hi!
On my Angelic Buster I'm seeing many guide saying I should max Pink Pummel over Lovely Sting. I just thought that since Sting is a Soul Battery skill, that it should be maxed. But if Pummel is just objectively better I should be maxing that.
This is my first time playing Buster and I'm really enjoying it, so I just have no idea what to do really. As skills I don't like either of them and I'm really just training with Star Bubble because it's fast and hits hard.

Short answer: It doesn't really matter, as you'll be able to max the other one when you get your Leafre set.
Long answer: Both skills have utility late game, imo. Sting is used to kill mobs who are horizontally farther away than Celestial Roar can hit (but Celestial Roar has larger vertical range).
This is useful in Dojo or in maps where mobs spawn slightly too far away for Celestial Roar.
Pummel has utility as of right now as a mob pusher - after the recent KMS update, it no longer requires mobs to move you that distance. This has utility in endgame bossing.
One should max Sting as of right now, because the extra damage might actually be useful. Pummel is always a utility skill, so the damage on it is irrelevant.
In the end, you'll be able to max both once you grab your Leafre set.
Honestly, I didn't use either much leveling to 3rd job. Star Bubble worked too well.
