Demon Form is a shapeshifting skill granted by the Infernalist ascendancy notable Demonic Possession that allows the player to Shapeshift into a Demon. While transformed, you gain a large bonus to spellcasting, but lose life over time. While transformed, you gain stacks of Demonflame over time, which increases spell damage and life loss over time.

Skill functions and interactions

Shapeshifting skills disable both your weapon slots while transformed. It also grant a third weapon set passive skill tree option.

Demonflame is considered life loss, not damage. As a result, it cannot be redirected to other resources such as Mind Over Matter or mitigated through damage reduction. Demonflame will interrupt energy shield recharge (or life recharge with Eternal Youth).

Demon Form will automatically deactivate when the demoness:

is at 1 Life, making it incompatible with Chaos Inoculation.
dies, regardless of the amount of current life (in Trial of the Sekhemas, for example).
starts reviving a downed teammate.
uses any skill that is not a Spell or Warcry.

Other mechanics:

Replaces the Dodge roll with a faster one, but does not add any new features.

Version history

Version	Changes
0.2.0	The Demon Form Skill granted by the Demonic Possession Ascendancy Passive Skill now has a Cooldown of 15 seconds (previously 20), and a maximum Demonflame of 10 (previously uncapped). You now lose a flat amount of Life per second per Demonflame (scaling with Skill level), rather than a percentage of your Maximum Life. The dodge roll while in Demon Form has also had its distance reduced. Using Blink while in Demon Form now plays an appropriate animation instead of landing to Blink.
0.1.1	Fixed a bug where the unique item "Corpsewade" did not work when the player was using the King of the Faridun Body Armour Microtransaction. This also appears to have fixed a similar bug with Demon Form not triggering Decompose. [Undocumented]
0.1.0f	Fixed a client crash that could occur after entering Demon Form while fighting Zarokh, the Temporal.
0.1.0e	Fixed a bug where interactables would remove the player from Demon Form. (Hotfix 2) Fixed a bug introduced in patch 0.1.0e where the Spell Gem Level from the Demon Form buff did not apply unless you resocketed affected gems. (Hotfix 7) Fixed a bug that could cause some characters to be disconnected, most notably when trying to use the Demon Form skill granted by the Demonic Possession Infernalist Ascendancy Passive Skill.
0.1.0c	(Hotfix 2) Demon form now has a minimum of 1 life lost per second, per stack.
0.1.0	Introduced to the game.
