How does one get demon layer?
To unlock the event to earn the Demon Layer skill, you must have 55 or more affection/progress with Lillian, know the Holy Headpat skill, and have at least 6 Power, 6 Technique, and 6 Willpower, the three heroic stats i.e. those improved by Hero gear. You can build affection with Lillian by purchasing Holy Water, talking with her, and generally having positive interactions with her. When you meet these requirements, you'll have an event in the form of a quiz to earn the skill when you enter the Church.
I do hope that you find this helpful,

Quick question I am new here. How long does the bind status last on enemies because from all of my gameplay it seems to last forever.
Restraint status effects are fairly technical. Firstly, the strength of the Bind inflicted depends on the governing attribute such as Willpower for Magical Binding or Technique for the Bondage Net. Once the strength of the Restraint is established, attempts to struggle and escape from a restraint is a random roll between 90 and 110 that is increased by your Restraint Escape boosts, such as from perks, and then 1% of that is taken, then a +3 added to that, then 25% of your Power, 10% of your Technique, and 5% of your Luck are also added to this sum before it opposes the bind.
If you are under the effects of the Charm status effect, the total for your escape attempt is halved, making it twice as hard and take twice as long to escape from a restraint. Desperate struggles take energy but increase the percentage of Power used to 60% while 22.25% of Technique is used and an additional 3.15 is added onto the escape attempt.
So if you have a high amount of the appropriate attribute for a binding skill and/or if the enemy has low stats, most notably Power, then it can be quite difficult for enemies to escape from a restraint. Of course, the next update after the NPC system updates are finished will be focused on major rebalancing of the system again, so all of this could potentially be thrown out the window depending on how much and in what ways the combat system changes.
To add on and elaborate to all of this however, certain bosses are highly resistant if not outright immune to crowd control effects like Sleep or Binds. Most notably and to build off of blackchimaera's recommendations for fighting Sofia, the second phase of her third fight is immune to crowd control effects so using Sleep before striking with the Demon Layer no longer works.
I do hope that this answers your questions in a satisfactory manner,

As a final note, not quite certain when this art will be added, but Heather, Toxic Matango, and Ghost now have art assets. However, they will probably be in within the next few builds. One of them has art by ㋔谷, so definitely something to look forward to.
