Suggestions & Feedbacks: The Axolotl
Does she hit a tad bit too hard, or a tad too easy?
Maybe she shouldn't be able to do this or should be able to do that?
Leave your suggestions & feedbacks here for me to consider.

Really like the concepted of this class... but I fell it lacks a very special Quirk of an Axolotl, the Regen.

I suggest reworking the 3 first combat skills to complement better the Harpoon mode and give her more of a dancer/combo toolkit.

S1: Thwack!
"By the animation, I imagine it grabbing the enemy and breaking the guard while pulling her and the enemy away"
X000 - X000
Back 1
Ignores and Break Guard
Pull 1 the enemy

S2: Breach
"Just removing the Guard interaction in favor of giving more Debuffs, maybe some trinkets in the future will favor one of the Debuffs over the others"
000X - 000X
Forward 1
Ignores PROT
Debuffs PROT, Bleed Resist & Speed

S3: Axolotl Bless
"I know making a new sprite would be timing consuming, so maybe using the Hit/Dodge Sprite as a base and making her crossing her Weapons would suffice"
Self Regen & buff CRIT Chance

Note: I like the Bleed Debuff for using her in conjunction with the Kraken Slayer Mod, that is also a dancer class and synergies well with a marking and Debuffer classes. So if i can ask for a trinket, + Bleed skill chance vs Eldritch

Note2: Maybe making S5: Harpoon Throw 00XX - 0000 will make it more rewarding for positioning her well.

Note3: I thought for the Camping Skill something silly like "Splish Splash Splosh" where her Companions receive "-5% Stress Received" For Time Cost: 1.

I hope somehow these suggestions helps you find a niche for Her.

@LunarLapin
The thought of her gaining regen in some way has been flying around my mind for a while when I was making this class mod, though I decided against it so that it shows that she's still human (even if her hoodie shows some sign of sentience on some of the sprites). The regen idea might still be worth revisiting though.

Unsure about the skill reworks except for maybe Breach, though it's very interesting and I like the idea of her reaching out to grab an enemy and giving them a one good whack to the head. I'll keep those in mind and maybe implement them as a seperate patch.

I'll consider your notes too!

Could you set the class trinkets to be limited to 3 so they don't bloat the trinket loot pool?

Sure, I can do that.
I agree with regen being somewhere in class, even if it's a camping skill or a trinket. Otherwise, I love any class that has color options < 3 3 3 3
