Shapeshifting

Tooltip

Shapeshifting changes you into a non-human form. Shapeshifting skills still use your character's stats as normal unless otherwise specified.

Using a skill that is not compatible with your shapeshifted form will automatically revert you to human form.

Shapeshifting skills transforms your character into a different form.

Mechanics

Shapeshifting is typically enabled by equipping a talisman. When equipped, players can select one of three forms: Bear, Wolf, or Wyvern. Bear and Wolf are available at any character level; Wyvern requires reaching character level 6 (skill gem Tier 3). The chosen form determines which default attack is granted and can be changed freely; it does not affect the ability to shapeshift into other forms using shapeshift skills. When using a shapeshift skill, the character will automatically transform into the corresponding form, and will transform out of it when using a skill incompatible with the form (e.g. a spell). Triggered skills and persistent skills do not end a shapeshift.

Each form grants certain inherent bonuses:

Shapeshift form bonuses

Form	Skill archetype	Bonuses
Bear	Uses slams and fire attacks, spends rage	+10 to Armour per level 30% of Armour also applies to Elemental Damage Gain an Endurance for every 15 Rage you spend
Wolf	Uses cold attacks and summons wolf pack minions	Drop to all fours after moving, granting 30% increased Movement Speed while not Sprinting
Wyvern	Uses fire and lightning attacks, spends rage	50% increased stun threshold 50% increased elemental ailment threshold 50% faster start of energy shield recharge

While in Wolf form, moving continuously for approximately 1 second or using sprint will cause the character to drop onto all four legs. Doing so grants 30% increased movement speed while not sprinting, even while stationary. Using any Wolf skill will cause you to go onto two legs.
