Luck of the Die is like one of the worst buffs in the game that add damage, next to Karma.
I'm feeling more towards Twilight before Noir Carte, since it adds very insignificant amounts of damage on multiple targets with the slower combo compared to Rapid Fire which attacks so quickly.
1 Twilight vs 20 Twilight makes the combo 1.21x stronger, but 1 Noir Carte vs 20 Noir Carte makes the Twilight combo ~1.08x stronger. If you focus solely on single target, Noir Carte would be superior, but with the prevalence of larger mobs in Monster Park/training, and LHC in GMS, unless if you can get Holy Charge (has this been confirmed as possible yet?), maxing Twilight which is a 20 point investment over the 30 points for Talent, would be better since this combo is currently the strongest multitarget skill in the game about equally tied with Final Toss except better utility, ease of use, range, etc. Of course, this is assuming Noir Carte can activate on every monster that you hit, as opposed to only single target like Final Attack does. If it is only single target, then without a doubt Twilight is the superior choice unless you focus solely on single target, but it does lower the overall damage potential ~1.10x.
SE is ~1.2x for Twilight, not as good as Holy Charge on neutral, or any other charge for that matter. And you can get SE off a glove or amule 4th job Archer, which saves that precious 4th job slot for Rapid Fire.

Initially, the passive speed caps from Haste were acquired, but I'm not sure if this has changed or not.
