I agree with @Dulcet but in terms of hyper skills I think I put fox spirit summon chance & repeat rather than reinforce. Depends on your overall damage output I guess.

EDIT: Your 170 hyper is also useful for its invincibility. Invincibility has saved me quite a huge number of times in some bosses, Hell Gollux, Chaos Vellum, Hard Magnus(when the balls just seem unavoidable), and even Lotus, especially with his unending laser rotation. Plus, the hyper deals with the mobs flying at you.

Hyper skills you want all three spirit claws and fox spirit reinforce & repeat. If you hit hard enough to kill with bomb punch then go for it but i suggest training with spirit claw since it will be easier to one shot the mobs. When training make sure to send off a soul split when its off cool down and kill the mobs it hit for double exp. On bosses, make sure to soul split then death mark so you get bonus DoT damage while you're attacking.

Drag pulls help get mobs to you if they are further away from your reach so always keep those at a short reach from your main attacking skills.

Your 170 hyper skill is pretty much only good for killing massive amounts of mobs really quick. An example being doing a killing attendance at mp3, if you stand on the bus and use your 150 hyper then your 170, you can pretty much kill anywhere between 170 -2xx mobs.

Back step and fox trot for obvious reasons, if you jump and use fox trot you can go up to higher platforms. Also it might take some practice but when you flash jump turn around and use back step as you're falling down and jump right out of it into another flash jump to cover flat maps faster.

Spirit Frenzy is on the keyboard for when a boss does weapon cancel because even though I will be doing 1 damage, Fox Fires will be coming out very rapidly to do damage.

Put fox trot, backstep, spirit claw, and bomb punch on easily accessible keys.
Put soul splitter, death mark, bind, and your hypers together because you're gonna need to hit most of them while bossing.

since youre funded you are probably gonna wanna train with Bomb Punch over Spirit Claw. For Bossing you wanna put your Hyper Skills in Spirit Claw and Fox Spirit, for Mobbing Bomb Punch and Fox Spirit. for keyboard space you the skills dont take up too much space because for the most part you are only gonna end up using 5 Skills: Spirit Claw, Bomb Punch, Death Mark, and Soul Splitter and the Bind.
