Don't know how you'll self-Dark without either of those WSs beforehand.

i only use /nin if i have to... i love using /sam the conserve/store tp bonus, meditate, sekanoki, i use macros with third eye and utsusemi that work with whichever sub i use. it really depends on what role you are playing if you are tanking or taking alot of magic or crit dmg then yes /nin is pretty much required. if just fighting normal mobs other subs can be more useful and less expensive on the tools... i say screw tools and just saber dance, haste/drain samba III and skillchain away.

Well /nin used too be the best idea but Shadows too expensive now.
If no money the rest of the subjobs is perfect! Don't forget reraise!

Also magic defense bonus II

Well, by trial I was thinking of the Magian WS-based dagger trials. But yeah, forgot you need PyrKleos to selfdark. You can get Distortion/Fragmentation on much more viable WSs than Shadowstitch however (Evisceration into Dancing Edge or Shark Bite respectively).
