Yeah, major amounts of personal preference.
A lot of them insist that you go out and max Chakram Storm even though it's in the Blade side of the skill tree, but I don't think picking up the skill in the first place is necessary at 60 cap, considering it's slow as hell and extremely dangerous to use in a bossing situation. I'm pretty sure you can't use technique accessories to upgrade both Chakram Storm and Dawnblade to Lv. 11 as well, since they might share the same accessory slot. Investing too heavily into the blade tree seems like a bad idea, considering the Blade skills won't be affected by the Illusion buffs.
This is the build I'm planning to run with:

Note that the simulator has a few bugs, notably Feather Step going to Lv. 6 when max level is 5, and Windcall/Illusive Gaze going to Lv. 9 when max level is 1.
I only go down to Swivel Charge because it's a very fast-casting mobility skill and it's also one of the few skills that gets reduced CD as you level it.
Picking up Stalker and Dusk Hunter EX is a personal preference thing as their design is more PvP-oriented rather than PvE. I only took them because there was nothing else to invest SP into at this cap, unless you want to max Butterfly Whirl for reduced CD (which isn't a bad idea, I might end up doing that myself instead). I looked at 70 cap simulators already, and found that I'll have to drop both (Stalker to Lv. 1, not picking up Stalker EX and Dusk Hunter EX by default) in order to continue maxing the other skills.
