Transformations

This article is also available in greek. Το άρθρο αυτό έχει δημοσιευθεί και στα ελληνικά, στο ελληνικό blog.


Appearance

You look like the transformation mob, so no one can discern your real appearance, class, level grade and equipped items (armor,weapon).

Skills
You can use only the active skills of the transformation, no skills of your class, noble, weapon or event.

But.. all passive skills are working normally, including masteries, augments and SA.

Notes:
  • You must complete the transformation quest ("More than meets the eye - Hardin's Academy) in order to be able to transform.
  • Some transformations are general and some are class-specific.
  • In order to learn a transformation, you need the specific sealbook.
  • When carrying a flag during a siege, transformation is unwise, as you cannot use your transformation skills while carrying it, only the flag skills. At the same time, you cannot see the flag skills.

                  The Dragon Bomber is by far the best transformation for any class/race except Daggers.

                  Silent Step is simply too good a skill to pass by!

                  how much time for skill silent step please?

                  summoner said...

                  The silent step skill lasts for 2 minutes, but you can refresh it immediatelly. So you could effectively walk silently for the whole duration (30 minutes) of the transformation.
