Lone Exile - Master Arts Review

RANK	Arts	Rating
1	Gale Slash	★★・・・
10	Soaring Tempest	★★・・・
20	Blossom Dance	★★★・・

疾風陣 is a damage skill for defenders but it is more powerful if it can manage aggro, so learning this is low priority. Soaring Tempest is a good skill for combo oriented parties. Blossom Dance has both damage and aggro management but as a Talent Art, it is not the best. You can learn it either way.

Lone Exile - Master Skill Reviews

RANK	Skills	Rating
5	Natural Selection	★★★★★
15	Maniac	★★★★★

Natural Selection can increase the Survival Instinct of Defenders, so it should be a top priority for Defenders to learn this. In the latter half of the game, the goal is to fight enemies stronger than you, so Maniac is an essential skill for an Attacker. This is also a skill that Attackers should prioritize learning.
