So, this is admittedly a suggestion I have regarding youkai regalia. 

It used to be long ago that we were able to stockpile youkai to the twenties as to avoid having to relevel and otherwise.

Truthfully a reason I'm always so hesitant in removing the youkai isn't just because of the limit now more in the 13-14ish but more because of the youkai regalia already used on these youkai just being gone on release, especially if you were to want to swap spirit guardians!

So, my suggestion admittedly is that if a regalia'd youkai is released, that it refunds the regalia admittedly.

Can Absolute Death's bonus AOE damage count for Hidden Cut? The effect, while an appreciated bonus, still feels a little underwhelming, and doesn't really help in a scenario against multiple opponents all that much, most of the time, and Kensei having an extra way to make use of Hidden Cut for AOE would be nice, I think?

I just think it'd be cool

This is about the recent nerf to a racial skill that honestly didn’t need it, considering how high its costs and cooldowns already are.

At character level 60, Divine Eyes had its damage reduced from 300 to 240. It still ignores defense, sure, but it has an 8-round cooldown — and it doesn't even ignore evasion on use! You miss that hit, you're put to sit down, having suffered the HP cost, momentum cost and no effect to it.

Now let's compare that to the Shaitan's Painful Grip after a successful grapple. It also ignores defense and evasion, but has just a 1-round cooldown.

So, just as a quick comparison, over those 8 rounds, a Shaitan can hit for 120 damage up to eight times — 960 total — and that's unresistable. Meanwhile, Divine Eyes can only land 240 damage, which can be dodged and reduced since that is not considered bonus damage.

That's a massive gap in value.

To put it plainly:

• Round 0: Shaitan has a 65% chance to deal 120. Human has to roll evade for a chance to deal 240.
  
  
• Round 8: Shaitan potentially dealt 960. Human dealt 480 (assuming both hit so far).
  
  
• Round 16: Shaitan's at 1920. Human's at 720.

Rather than reducing Max HP, make this reduce your Maximum Physical Stamina by 25%.

Rework it into letting us input an Arrow Minigame to instantly demolish Rocks, Trees or objects that can be attacked (such as signs) we try to harvest/destroy.

The way this would work is that it would take the maximum durability of said object, calculate how many swings you'd need to manually take, and make it only one. Then the cost is divided unevenly between Physical Stamina and Mental Stamina.

You gain resources as per normal, each roll being done separately.

Quote:Eyes of Elimination

This can have 4% Max HP cost.

This skill costs 5% of your current HP to use and some mental stamina.

You target one enemy in a 5 range, and swiftly close the gap on them, performing a basic attack that deals bonus (Char LV * 2) damage after you are in range.

This should have an animation. My suggestion is that you move using the 'blur' animation, then perform Thorn Scratch in a random angle direction, and finish with Invocation Breaking animation of Dark Bard, before it does damage.

Damage from this can instantly kill lesser enemies. If it fails to instantly kill, it inflicts or powers up Cursed Wounds LV X (X = damage), for 4 rounds. (Critical Hits double the duration of Cursed Wounds)

Drawing the line without making mistakes increases the attack's Hit and Critical rate, up to 50.

2 round CD. If it instantly kills an enemy, it puts Divine Eyes on a 2 round CD.

Quote:Divine Eyes

This can have 4% Max HP cost too, for a maximum of 8%.

This skill costs 10% of your current HP to use and some mental stamina.

You target one enemy in 1 range and try to dismantle them, dealing protection-ignoring slash damage (Char LV * 4) that ignores evasion, and can critically hit (critical hits from this skill deal bonus damage equal to 10% of the target's current HP).

This should have an animation too. Shinobi's Arashi slash animation does the trick. But you could also make it so it performs a Thorn Scratch animation in 3 random directions (based on the amount of lines drawn), ending by the Invocation Break animation of Dark Bard.

Damage from this can instantly kill lesser enemies. If it fails to instantly kill, it inflicts or powers up Cursed Wounds LV X (X = damage), for 4 rounds. (Critical Hits double the duration of Cursed Wounds)

Drawing the line without making mistakes increases the skill's Critical rate, up to 50.

4 round CD. If it instantly kills an enemy, it also puts Eyes of Elimination on a 2 round CD.

Quote:Divine Ease

Req. Strange Sight

This should make it so it costs 15 Physical Stamina and 15 Mental Stamina to use Strange Sight, Divine Eyes or Eyes of Elimination, skipping their minigame. If you don't have either, it still skips the minigame, but doubles any HP costs and increases the cooldown by 1 extra round.

This should also actually skip their minigame rather than 'auto-succeed' it. For the sake of fluidity in combat or mining.

It should also passively increase the cooldown of Strange Sight skills by 1 round.

where?!

You can currently get hit twice by AoEs if you proc Kiomite's teleport and reappear again within the area of effect.

Summoner's Affinity skills are increasing a Youkai's stats even while no summoner class is equipped, most prominently available to Guardian Spirits.

To replicate:
Look at a Guardian Spirit's HP
Buy the +5 stat passive in Summoner for that youkai type
Heal up at  an inn
Guardian Spirit's HP increases, this also applies in battle with the +5 all stats.

Can Martial Artist get an innate or toggle style skill so that they can choose whether they want to do the multi-hit punches or a singular big punch?

I mostly suggest this out of RP purposes.

From a mechanical standpoint, perhaps a small Crit DMG buff or something similar to make up for the lack of multiple chances to hit would be good enough? Fists can get accurate enough already but their basic attacking damage can be a bit lackluster at times, (if not you're not looking to spam on-hit effects).
