Shapeshifting

Some skills change your shape. Shapes replace (override) many of your stats by the stats of the shape. The shape's stats take precedence over any of your usual stats.

You can remove a shapeshift by right-clicking its buff icon next to the mini-map.

Skills

 * Dinosaur Shape (Shifter) turns you into a dinosaur (Animal). Base constitution is set to 10 ∙ SLvl. Race is set to Animal.
 * Vampire Form (Shifter) turns you into a vampire (Undead). Base dexterity is set to 10 ∙ SLvl. Race is set to Undead.
 * Steal Shape (Shifter) steals the shape of an enemy, getting their race and 50% + 5% ∙ SLvl of their stats.
 * Ascension (Planeshifter) turns you into an angel (Celestial), sets defense to 0 and physical resistance to 50 + SLvl.

Which stats aver overridden?
Dinosaur Shape overrides race (Animal), appearance (a dinosaur), size and gives a bonus to your life similar to a buff.

Ascension overrides race (Celestial), appearance (an angel), defense (0), physical resistance (50 + SLvl) and gives you "ignore target's defense".

Vampire form overrides race (Undead), appearance (a vampire) and gives you a bonus to attack and defense similar to a buff.

Steal Shape overrides race, appearance, size, strength, dexterity, constitution, max life, attack speed, accuracy, defense, attack damage and resistances. Base damage, attack speed and resistances do not scale with SLvl.
