Student of the Elemental Mind: I don't think this is worth the investment. For example, to make this even with Inner Calm in value at max rank, you need to be slinging 4000 Chakra sennin forbidden jutsu; it just isn't going to happen. You'd be better off using your precious SP on a skill that will give you more return.

 

Elemental Genjutsu Mastery: Historically, we have been very, very strict with skills that might grant Genjutsu damage boosts. A skill that pumps Ghost damage like it was ninjutsu isn't going to pass muster, I'm afraid.

Is there a reason why skills that boost Ghost Damage are not usually approved? 

[Yurane]

Unlike physical (taijutsu/ninjutsu) damage, which is lowered by defense, ghost damage is much, much harder to reduce... so it's also a lot harder to raise. It's part of how genjutsu is balanced.

Okay. So I guess move these to the dead thread, then?
