Well I just scrap the ability to wear heavy armor, but get rid of the no armor penalty in kamae. A kendoka wears light armor... leather and cloth.. maybe some bamboo, but that's it. No metal.

And all kamae should use stamina. I like the stamina per second idea.

make it different from the warrior classes by not focussing on strength but more on dexterity and stamina in general.

And yes, Nito would be awesome. To go with game mechanics, you could just use the daggers for the kodachi.

I like all the active abilities!

Maybe add a sustained "Bogu Smell" abilty which gives an aura that increases the miss chance of opponents

And a steel mind tree... (you know how rogues have stealth etc), for Kendoka, a steel mind tree you'd get extra resistances to all magic schools and higher resistance to poisons etc. Especially good though against mind control etc.

And yeah I'd totally download that class
