You realize this would *decrease* the difference between yamabushi and sohei? There are two big differences at present: Yamabushi have a higher internal attack stat, and the weapon (katana vs. glaive). That's a 4 point damage difference, most notably. Making the katana a no-dashi reduces it to a 2 point damage difference.

You want to really differentiate them? Make sohei recruit anywhere. There's really no reason they shouldn't be, and its not like they're good enough sacreds to make a bless build that desirable. (Yamabushi are so much better than Sohei at present - its all about the glaive).
