Your advice makes me cringe, Jamie. Just... Ugh...
I've never used HH for training since I 1-2hit+rush everything I can hit 100% with a below average 9kish range, personally, and for bossing it's really only any good at zak arms...

Most important skills.
Holy and Blast are debatable. Holy only really boosts your neutral damage since you won't be training on holy weak monsters for a long time, but it's unlikely you'll be training on neutral monsters either. Blast is a nice single hit skill, and maxed you'll 1-hit everything you can hit, however, it's not that useful for training at all. Great for bossing, though. I have both maxed at 146, but I've gained my last 3 levels almost solely from bossing.
As I said, I have never used HH for training, and I don't see how it's possibly effective, but maybe I'm missing something. I -know- it's awful for bosses, however, especially ones that summon things.
Stance and Guardian are probably about equally useful to max. I'd lean towards getting some stance then maxing guardian, though, since it blocks status ailments too. Achilles is great.. At level 1. Maxing it before stance or guardian is just silly.
As for rush, you shouldn't even consider putting more than 1 point into it until 19x. Period.
