Transformations
Special transformations have been added.
Transformation Types
Combat and non-combat transformations are available. Combat transformations are broken down into two types: common transformations and race-specific transformations.
Transformation Procedure
Players can transform by using special transformation skills or by attaching a talisman to a bracelet. There are also transformation scrolls available through the new auction system, and a special type of transformation that utilizes armor obtained from Hellbound.
Players are automatically transformed when they acquire one of the cursed swords (Demonic Sword Zariche and Blood Sword Akamanah).
Cancelling Transformations
A transformation can be cancelled by using the Cancel Transformation skill.
A transformation is cancelled upon death.
If a transformation has been enabled by an item, it is cancelled upon un-equipping that item.
A transformation is cancelled after certain period of time.
A transformation is cancelled in water (with the exception of the cursed sword transformations).
Acquiring the Transformation Skill
After a player completes the “More than Meets the Eye” quest (level 50+), the first transformation skill can be learned from the Wizard Avant-Garde on the second floor of the Ivory Tower.
Players must acquire the first transformation skill, in order to acquire other transformation skills.
A Transform Sealbook is required to learn additional transformation skills.
The various transformation tomes can be purchased from the Guild Adventurer or the Black Marketeer of Mammon as follows:

Crystal of Life and Adena are required to purchase the Transform Sealbook from a Guild Adventurer NPC.
Non-combat transformations can be acquired by attaching a talisman to a bracelet.
