Why Does Samukematsuri Samurai pay more SP for its fire skill than Headless Horseman? They otherwise appear identical aside from # of hits.

Normal skills cost 392 sp. Weapon-based skills locked to armor element get elecomp bonus to cost - they cost less sp the worse their elemental modifiers are.

Samukematsuri Samurai has good defence against ice (51), the element you'relikely to use the skill against, while Headless Horseman has a bad one (100) - hence the lower elecomp bonus and higher cost.

Elemental Compensation is calculated based on the Elemental Wheel's position of the skill's element relative to its best resistance.

Samurai's fire skill is best paired with Light resistance of (41-25)/14 *88/80 *100/70 due to being Neutral alignment on the Wheel = 1.796 -.18 = 1.616, which is close to 1-(152/392) = .6122
Horseman's fire skill is best paired with Fire resistance of (39-25)/14 *88/86 *130/70 due to being Opposite alignment on the Wheel = 1.900 -.18 = 1.72, which is close to 1-(111/392) = .7168
