After playing it, I think Rockets in first job are quite good. They're rarely justified in 2nd job since Concentration has such a long range though, but you can use them like potions (any time), but damn do they lag like potions on KMS.
Sudden Propel is most definitely overpowered and should be maxed first.
My own Xenon is retardedly strong with a higher clean range at 76 than my 12x Demon Avenger. I'm not really liking Split, and Pillar Scramble for what they're meant to do. Anything that could live through a Pillar Scramble + Split means I'm missing on it. It's very ineffective. Similar to Angelic Buster's Land Crash + Falling Stars. Not many things lived through the Land Crash, and if they did it's probably because you missed. The Falling Star would either OHKO them or miss, with or without the air damage bonus in most cases after you put points into it.
Split is identical to Mercedes' Leap Tornado, except that you can't macro it so doing two in one jump is difficult if you don't have autofire. Diagonal Chase and Leap only allow you to follow up with one Split, unlike Rolling Moonsault/Legendary Spear. Diagonal Chase is also terrible for rushing since it brings you up platforms, and most maps have those. But at the same time, Split or Explosion are likely strong enough to OHKO and rushing is pointless, or the extra hits are what you need to kill things. Ion Thrusters are still probably the best way to take care of large packs of monsters anyways...
