Okay, I can feel you there. The youkai spells are a little too costy for their own worth. The fact is, if you don't hard focus on X elemental attack (Build meme), they're almost not worth using right now. As Sol stated, it reaches the point people refuse to level certain youkai due to the FP cost. (If it ain't damage source, I ain't leveling it)

This is more serious on a Shapeshifter since they're required to use youkai spells yet the cost for said spells makes it hard to not run out of FP quickly without secondary class support such as monk or Mystic Grow Appendage.

Indeed, you're better off abusing your secondary class ability over Youkai evokers. Let's not even get into how fast youkais run out of FP when using their OWN spells.

I understand why alot of people are okay with this large cost due to hate but let's not use one oversize dragon as a excuse.

How to fix this?

Lower the amount of FP cost per level IS a suggestion I would mention. Of course, I'm not saying we need the 5~10 FP cost back but if we can get it down to a reasonable amount to fit the cost. I'd say somewhere around 20~ mark for players and 10~ mark for the youkai.

Why so little for the youkais? Due to the repeat action increasing the cost by 50%, it'll add up to 15~20 mark. This mean, they'll end up using 30~40 FP a turn. Reasonable, yeah? Standard for some mage classes.
