So I've been trying to build a Stage Arien build. I experimented with most skills before I rebirthed then got the skills I found useful when I rebirhted. What i came up with so far is this.
This is what I got going so far in game.

I still got some points left over on that I can put on stuff but I'm not sure what to put in. I was thinking on Arrow of Wind to have another skill I can abuse against bosses while my Crit buff is active. Force of Wind doesn't appeal to me because it's mostly for mobs and when mobs are around I tend to be far back, not to mention that it's hard to hit monsters in such a small range and the damage is not amazing, plus it's 1 more point to max.
So what do you think i can get out of this, I feel like it's I'm missing something but I'm not entirely sure what. Any ideas?
Edit: here is what I think I might want. If I can get someone to rate it for me that'd be cool

Edge of Storm is a great skill. It can hit 10 times on most bosses, and I can usually get it to hit 4 times on normal mobs. I'd say max that instead of Arrow of Wind.
On another note, the 5th skill on the Lightning tab (name forgotten) does about 800+ damage at first level altogether. If you can aim it at a boss, all that damage is dealt to that one target. That's great for 1 SP and only 76 mana. If you don't want to take a second to aim it, then just leave it out, but I like it.
Blow of Wind isn't that great. It only does 100 damage. Use the SP elsewhere. Like the fire skill you left out. I personally like it because it knocks down everything around you, making it easy to escape. It also has an instant cast, meaning that if you get hit the pheonix will still attack.
Other than that, not bad.

Well I like blow of wind because it cancels out Rigel's Heal, that's the only reason I have it there.

I would max Edge of Storm instead of Arrow of Wind as well
You only have 4 on mp recovery and none on mp max? You will have a big lack on mana, unless u plan on using drake set or something..
Why do you need both Scattering maxed o.o
i think u should use these skills to increase some mana skills
and maybe max the original heavens justice
just my opinions, but u will have a big mana problem x_x

Well I'm lvl 65 never had any mana problems...
As far as the scatterings, I LOVE them both they do awesome damage and they go real neatly with each other so I definitely want both maxed.
I don't like Original Heaven's Justice I just use it to activate Ancient Elf hero set Buff or else I would not even have it.
Edit: Oh and I don't have Arrow of wind, I was just thinking it'd be nice to have one more skill that would benefit from the Crit buff. But I don't know if it's a good skill I used it before I rebirthed and did not like it much.
Edit V2.0 : How does this one look then?

yeah It's actually pretty nice on big mobs like the ones on Bonus and Myth. I don't use it against small bosses like Rigel or Lir but I do like having it cause it does do some nice damage on big stuff.
Well I'm not at Myth yet (68) but if I don't find it useful at Myth then I might take it off, since you are partially right it's hard to use it in the middle of a mob since you don't get inv frames and overall it usually only hits a couple times.

That purple pot/mp pot goes perfect if you can't go without ldrake you fail

I'm not gonna max it though, I was gonna leave it at 10 (430 mp). Although I might get rid of it, it's starting to annoy me, only thing is I don't know what to do with that 10 SP once I take it off RB justice.

That's what I decided on at the end. I took into consideration a lot of things people said and I like how it turned out personally. You guys can go ahead and rate it.

i would give a 7 if you are pure stage :O
blow of wind has terrible damage and only for single mob.
calling thunder lv 1 has terrible damage and extremely long cooldown.
thunder fragment should max, get to myth and u will see 30+ chains even it only has 6 arrows attack.
flame bombing and flame strike...bad damage, good for pvp thought.
flame storm should be ONE point, good damage for one point.
mp increase, one is good enough, the other one is for crits buff for your lighning skills!!!
mp regen is not necessary if you have L drake. not even need 1 ( for me)
from my assume, this is a pvp build instead of stage build :O

I'd lean towards this, personally.

...WHY?
RB Scattering requires you to be nearly point blank for all hits to hit, and it pushes back. <_<
RB Justice is also overly...easily...canceled. =.=

Personal choices,
I've had great success with both skills regardless of their flaws.
I like that RB SW pushs things back and away from my Arien, and RB HJ has to be timed correctly for max effect. It' goes lovely right after Regular Hj+AEH 50% boost.
A skill like Thunder Frag. however has always been' a let down and very situational, though useful against Bosses.
