Wanted to compare Striker to Grappler.
Crushing Fist: Fast Punch forward; like Muse except without the launching, just goes straight. Can move far, and it stops monsters in their tracks for a small amount of time. Grounds any monsters in the air, flat. Pretty high damaging attack.
Power Fist: Attack Buff. Gives some STR in exchange for slower attack speed. I don't use it much, just a prerequisite for later.
Mountain Pusher: Exactly like the Dash attack, where you plow in with your Shoulder. HUGE damage. Can hit things lying down, so it's great after Muse -> Crushing. If you use it while dashing, you move a big distance forward. I use Crushing Fist in one direction, followed by Mountain Pusher in the opposite, like Boomerang Step. Fancy stuff. Don't know what hit 'em.
Bone Crusher: Low Kick with bone crushing. Slightly slower than Low Kick, possibly because it's level 1, but it does massive damage and can slow targets.
Fatal Aim: Buff that gives Critical and Hit Rate. (4% and 1% at level 1 respectively)
Muscle Shift: A buff. Lets you cancel an attack (once at level 1 per use) even without the ___Cancel skill; presumably useful for canceling the below skills and Bone Crusher which don't have Cancels.
Tornado Kick: QCB+Kick. Think Street Fighter; Ken, Ryu, Akuma.
I've never seen the rest of the skills, but I assume Beat Drive is sexy. Too bad I can't learn it...
Level cap is 40 right?

After completing that doucher Albert's long chain of stupid quests (particularly, the 10 Clear Whole Cube, 2 of every other), you get to learn Cross Class skills from him
Grappler: Neck Snap - Turns enemy around 300% damage; +5% critical on Back attacks
Nen Master: Suplex Thunder as seen above
Brawler: Apply Poison - Chance to poison with attacks; 1 second duration poison, 52 Strength; buff length = downtime length.
I haven't tried any of these, but I assume Suplex Thunder would be useful to Grapplers, and I should probably try Neck Snap when I reach the level. I'm just a bit doubtful over the usefulness of Apply Poison.
And yes, I have level 1 Iron Physique for some reason. I wish I didn't.
