Keep in mind this is my subjective opinion, so don’t take any of this too harshly.
Best Skills for Each Skull
Common
Carleon Recruit – armored soldier and either ninja or recruit. Armored soldier is a great crowd control option, and the other two provide nice damage.
Ent – Deep roots and fist; deep roots provides a large amount of I-frames and fist gives a lot of damage to his kit.
Gravey – King lear and macbeth; they provide the best possible damage (outside of hamlet but he’s way too limited) out of the 4 skills.
Mage – fire arrow and fireball/explosion; the second skill is personal preference, but I like to always take fire arrow on my mage for it’s nice pierce and ease of use.
Thief – Throw gold; this is the only skill that I ever always want on thief, but that’s only because all his other skills are all just as strong.
Pikeman – if you’re going for a dash build forward march is a nice idea, but a more well rounded skill if you don’t want to is the parry.
Shield – shield slam; shield slam is his most ease of use and consistent skill, while also doing good damage.
Sword – sawblade slash; it gives the most damage and decent multi target potential at higher rarities.
Monkey – heaven-earth slam; it not only provides quick and good damage, but also stuns, allowing for good utility.
Werewolf – hunt; need I say more?
Thor – the concentration skill; while not too great at rare and common, it really amps up at unique, and especially at legendary.
Demigod – slice or aim for the heart; slice and aim for the heart do about the same damage, but each are better in different scenarios. Slice is my go-to on any non strike run since the extra range is nice for hitting large groups. While aim for the heart works well, but due to it’s low base damage it needs a lot, with strike builds
Oh btw, quick animation and fast casting speed mean the same thing.
