As a Hero already past second job, I recommend dropping Ground Smash and maxing Improved Fundamentals with those points. Ground Smash is only useful in second job to level. Once you reach Third Job, 15 Brandish will replace it completely, and Brave Slash replaces that as well.
I am of the personal opinion that Heroes benefit the most from Improved Fundamentals and Slash Blast, since the only 6 mob skills they get are Coma which can only be used when you have orbs up, Shout which is extremely slow, and Monster Magnet and Rush, which can't be spammed as far as I know. Being able to mob 250%x6 after Rushing in theory sounds better than having a 300%x3 skill that you'll never use again. As for your 4th job, you may want to put a single point into Monster Magnet. As far as I know, it's a guaranteed stun and pull on a 370% range and is as fast as a normal attack. i.e. you won't be limited by Rush's movement using it, and they won't counterattack or touch you, saving potions. Plus, the Stun enables Chance Attack unlike Rush.
