Definitely right. Hokusai Saber is an Arts-Crit Saber. As such, in a decent team, her NP gen is already really impressive (especially with arts/quick crits). If you have a Merlin (or a friend's) or Hans, or 2030, then crit-gen isn't an issue either. What she needs is even more NP damage and crit damage. Her 3rd skill is definitely her main source of this, as it gives quite insane damage potential in crits. It's her characteristic skill that heavily ties into and reinforces her strengths and playstyle (she doesn't have other general damage buffs). Her first skill is also quite good, and should be used to insta-charge NP or give a crit star boost (ties into 3rd skill when you have 3 or more of her cards in rotation) so she can continue proccing her Crit-buffs or spamming NP. Skill 2 isn't that reliable as a damge support due to its long cooldown, even though it gives 3 turn star absorption which becomes redundant if you have 1 2030, Hans with maxed 3rd skill and a friend's merlin (50+ crit stars every few turns). However, it is her ONLY survival skill, so it does have it's uses, but only around once per fight. As such, the order you suggested is very correct.
