I disagree. Summoner is "grind your ass off for hours on end for every (good) youkai you have, and then stomp everything".
Both parts of that should be changed. They need to be easier to level, but not quite as strong.

Also, the recent nerf to status effect inflictions didn't just affect Hexer.
The majority of Youkai skills have chance-based infliction.
