Remember that the minimum required XL is the experience level at which the form would have the same check as a controlled #youpoly attempt, e.g. there is always a set 120 of feeling like a new doppleganger rather than achieving the desired polyform.

Common choices of polyform are as follows:

  • The various medium-sized humanoids can wear all available armor and use weapons.
  • Demons have natural fire resistance and poison resistance, and bare-handed melee attacks can gate in other demons - but tame demons are usually traitorous, making them dangerous to keep around if they have more HP than you.
