Pretty much. But why would you wanna play destiny kensei, especially if you're going dodge? I don't think Kensei suffers from a lack of skill points at the moment.
Just main kensei and subclass any MA or Rogue, or whatever, and get those buffs up.
I dislike the focus on this evade buff situation as much as the next guy, but hey, that's just how the game works at the moment. There's plenty of viable ways to play Kensei. Kensei/Verglas with yukijin is free evade buffs, Kensei/Monk, Kensei/Shifter or Bonder, Kensei/DH for the nostalgia (sucks because no buffs) A few different flavors of Kensei/Spellthief, Kensei/VA can also be quite nice, can even grab impure with an ele katana.
Then if you wanna play tank, you can go Destiny Ghost/Kensei, or Kensei/BK, Kensei/mage, Kensei/whatever you want.
Kensei isn't a top tier class but it can still be used in many setups. I think ultimately this is another "evade sucks" post, which I agree with.
All that being said, I do think Kensei would benefit from a nice evade buff that complements its playstyle. The buff you proposed sounds perfectly in line with what Kensei wants to do and is all about. Only issue is that 30 free evade bonus is too powerful to have as a passive. Balance it a bit to make it fair and it'd be perfect. At the same time though, I feel like tank kensei could also use something more interesting to help them out.
