So, uh, the abilities given by Chimera Mutations don't use weapon hit, which means they can lose a massive amount of hit when using them. My chimera using starlight gaze vs basic attack gets 215 hit vs 240 hit, which is especially fucked for starlight gaze because it's explicitly an anti-dodgie tool by effect.

Not using the weapon means they likely miss a bunch of other synergies, too!

Since Youkai Evokes recently got that much-needed weapon hit boost, and pretty much every other racial attack is either an evade ignore (wyverntouched bite), just uses the weapon (amalgama spells), or has their own 'bare fist' type weapon (oni bite), it's definitely worth taking a look at Chimera abilities.
