Once you get more melee combat jobs leveled I seriously doubt you will be using up 3 slots for your basic attacks. I only ever use just one. I use the low stamina one mostly, unless the higher stamina requirement attacks are more accurate or enfeeble the target in some way; but even then that is just for NMs and very high level mobs. (with the exception of GLA, their basic attack misses horribly) Your basic attacks you are using now will be replaced with skull sunder 2 and trammel eventually both use very little stamina and only 500TP and do at least double damage to your prey.
