One [[Beast Forms]] are a unique feature of the unique features of skill system in Project : Gorgon is that is allows players . [[Beast Forms]] are transformations which can be discovered from consuming potions, failing to choose to play as an animaldefeat specific bosses, participating in events, or leveling skills. The animal forms like Cow and Spider were originalle intended as While technically curses, but they each have their own playstylesmany consider [[Beast Forms]] to be viable, so some players enjoy playing as animals full timepowerful alternatives to living life in a humanoid form.

==General CharacterisationSkill Characterization ==; [[Cow]]* Cows are viewed as a traditional tank archetype. Abilities such as [[Tough Hoof]] and [[Chew Cud]] help Cows improve their survivability in longer fights. Cows also have the [[Haste|sprint]] ability [[Moo of Determination]], and the the ability to produce their own milk.* {{Item|Bottle of Milk}} is a valuable item used in crafting skills such as [[Cooking]] and [[Cheesemaking]]. Cows with a [[Special Behavior Badges|Vegetarian badge]] can produce milk faster than cows with a varied diet, however skill level and the version of [[Collect Milk]] used also impact collection times.* Adventurers can also milk cows, however consent must be given.; [[Deer]]* Deer is considered to be a good foundation for an off-tank. While cows receive overt tank abilities, survivability in deer primarily comes from Deer Treasure Effects on equipment. Deer have the ability to jump faster and higher than other land-based [[Beast Forms]] using [[Bounding Escape]]. They also have AoE taunts, while cows only have single target taunts.* Deer can use the ability [[Summon Deer]] to summon a wild deer to help them in battle.* Some deer are actually [[Druid]]s, using the [[Deer Form]] toggle ability.; [[Spider]]* Spider form is useful for DPS/Assassin type builds. Spiders deal predominantly Crushing and Poison damage to quickly defeat enemies. Many spiders rely on [[Incubate]], an ability that injects eggs inside enemies, dealing massive damage and spawning a pet spider. Spiders spawned through this ability will aid their parent in battle.* Spiders have the ability to use [[Insidious Illusion]] to temporarily talk with Animal Hating NPCs. This ability has a 20 minute cooldown and consumes a {{Item|Moonstone}} each time it is used.* {{Item|Spiderweb}} can be produced by Level 60 Spiders using [[Webspin]]. This ability can give spiders an advantage in [[Textile Creation]] and [[Tailoring]], which is helpful if they want to craft the spider-form [[Tailoring|Spider Casing]] equipment.; [[Pig]]* Pigs are often equipped for supporting roles. While they can hold their own individually, they shine in groups as healers or buff builders using a combination of [[Mudbath]], [[Frenzy]], and [[Porcine Alertness]].* The speed-boosting sidebar ability [[Terror Dash]] is often used by pigs escaping dangerous situations, or traveling across large regions of Alharth.* A variety of mushrooms can be found by pigs using the [[Truffle Sniff]] abilities. ; [[Rabbit]]* Normally, rabbits are stealthy creatures. Using [[Play Dead]], a rabbit can force enemies to ignore it for a few seconds. Traveling through dangerous areas, rabbits may alternate between the speed-increasing [[Hare Dash]] and the speed-reducing [[Long Ear]], which slows a rabbit down in exchange for reducing the detection range of nearby foes.* Rabbits are the only '''Beast Form''' capable of using [[Ice Magic]]. A special headgear item is required to activate this synergy.; [[Giant Bat]]* Giant Bats have access to a variety of tools, including knock-back, recovery, heavy damage, and concussion abilities. These options made Giant Bat compatible with many skills.* Giant Bats can use [[Echolocation]], which allows them to see in the dark. This ability is especially useful in area like the deeper parts of the [[Labyrinth]] in [[Ilmari]].* Giant Bats also have the ability to fly, and to infect others in PVP with a disease which will eventually turn them into a bat.; [[Lycanthropy]]* Lycanthropy is unusual among the [[Beast Forms]], as it is a '''permanent alteration.''' There will '''never''' be a method to remove Lycanthropy from a character, so be sure to understand the risks and rewards before accepting the blessing of [[Norala]].* Individuals infected with Lycanthropy can switch between humanoid and wolf form without too much effort, however they will be locked into wolf form during the Full Moon.* While in wolf form, Lycanthropes have access to powerful slashing, crushing, and trauma attacks. * [[Howl Mode]] allows packs of wolf-form lycanthropes to build up impressive combat-improving buffs.; [[Spirit Fox]]* Spirit Fox are tricksters, using abilities including [[Dimensional Snare]] to immobilize targets and [[Blur Step]] to boost their melee evasion during combat. In combat, Spirit Fox deal mostly Crushing and Darkness damage. * Spirit Fox can use [[Illusive Guise]] to disguise themselves in a humanoid projection for a short time. This allows them to interact with Animal Hating NPCs.; Druid Forms* [[Druid]]s can magically project themselves as [[Deer]], as well as a variety of birds including [[Raven Form|Raven]] and [[Mallard Form|Mallard]]. However, these are NOT [[Beast Forms]].

[[Cow]] and [[Deer]] are both built as Tanks, Cow as more of your traditional tank archetype, while Deer can be considered an Off== Beast Form Mechanics ===== Familiar's Recall ==={| {{STDT|sortable mw-collapsible<includeonly> mw-collapsed</includeonly>}} style="width: 100%;"!

Using a Recall Collar, a character using one of the [[SpiderBeast Forms]]s would be similar may directly teleport to your dps/assassin types most of their skill is set on master using Infinite Legs, or Poison abilities to quickly kill the enemyFamiliar's Recall ability. The same This ability can be said about [[Lycanthropy|Werewolves]] and [[Giant Bat]]sused from anywhere, they're both known as long as the player has been in animal form for their damage and their ability to keep the pressure onpast 3 hours of in-game real time.

This ability is learned from their master:* [[PigCinnamon the rabbit#Teleportation|Cinnamon the rabbit]] in [[Animal Town]] is currently the only NPC offering a bond, but he implies that other NPCs will offer this service in the future.==== Recall Collars ====<dpl> category = Items/FamiliarRecallCollar include = {ITEM infobox}:description reset = categories columns = 3 mode = userformat format = ,\n* {{Item|%PAGE%}}\n:,, allowcachedresults=true</dpl>=== Beast Skills ======= Beast Speech ====One of the disadvantages of becoming a [[Beast Forms|Beast Form]] is [[Beast Speech]]. When the skill is low, random words spoken in chat will be replaced by an animal sound of the same length. For example, a cow sending "''I need help, can you meet me at the Serbule Well''" might be sent as "''I moooo moooo, can moo meet me at the moooooooo moooo?''", which is rather inconvenient! The words replaced are random, and as Beast Speech is leveled, the frequency of swapped words is reduced dramatically.* [[Spirit Fox]]s are your support buildnot afflicted with [[Beast Speech]], as their transformation results is something not-quite a physical form.==== Survival Instincts ====[[Survival Instincts]] is a utility skill which provides sidebar abilities.* [[Toughen Up]] provides an alternative to [[Armor Patching]].* [[Toxic Flesh]] causes incoming melee attacks to inflict the attacker with poison.* [[Lend Grace]] improves evasion and regenerates power.==== Beast Metabolism ====[[Beast Metabolism]] is a skill used only by [[Lycanthropy|Lycanthropes]]. This skill levels as they consume the corpses of defeated enemies.==== Warden ====[[Warden]] is a combat skill exclusively available to [[Beast Forms]]. This skill deals Electricity, Fire, and Acid damage.* To learn the Warden skill you must have {{Favor|Friends}} or higher favor with [[Suspicious Cow]] in Eltibule, [[Red]] in Kur, or [[Norbert]] in Animal Town in Sun Vale. Speak with one of those NPCs with whom you have sufficient favor, and complete a series of quests to become a Warden=== Beast Form Equipment ======= Look Marna, No Hands! ====As an animal, you no longer have the ability to use skills that require handheld weapons, such as [[Sword]], [[Fire Magic]], or [[Shield]].* The lack of hands also prevents animals from gathering wood and collecting milk from milkable animals.* [[Beast Forms]] seeking to use [[Necromancy]] or [[Priest]] will be unable to use common [[Necromancy]] Orbs or [[Priest]] Staffs. Necklaces with Necromancy Gems or Holy Symbols can solo decentlybe used by animals.==== Crafting Equipment for Beast Forms ====When magical equipment is crafted, but they two gemstones are required to select the skills that Treasure Effects will be generated for. While most skills have [[gems]] easily obtained through surveying, animals require an additional step, rune-infused gems.* [[Sigil Scripting]] recipes taught by [[Preta]] in [[Sun Vale]] must be used to attune common gems to [[Beast Forms]]. Level 25 [[Sigil Scripting]] is required to produce the inscribed rune-infused gems.{||-| {{Item|Bat Malachite}}| {{Item|Cow Malachite}}| {{Item|Deer Malachite}}|-| {{Item|Pig Malachite}}| {{Item|Rabbit Malachite}}| {{Item|Spider Malachite}}|-| {{Item|Spirit Fox Lapis}}|}==== Animal-Specific Equipment ====Most [[Beast Forms]] have armor or equipment that can only be worn by that form. Usually, this includes [[Racial Jewelry]], however some forms have armor that changes them visually. Check individual pages of the [[Beast Forms]] for complete lists of their special equipment.* [[Cow]]s have access to crafted Champron (headwear) & Barding(chest armor), which gives them the appearance of an armored cow.* [[Deer]] can equip Alicorns such as {{Item|Greenberg's Horn}}, which add a centered horn to their forehead.* [[Spider]]s can wear crafted Spider Casings, which can change their carapace color if Decent quality or better .* [[Pig]]s can wear Porkpie Hats created through [[Tailoring]].* [[Rabbit]] - No visual equipment.* [[Giant Bat]]s can equip Witch Hats crafted through [[Tailoring]]. * [[Lycanthropy]] afflicted characters can wear a complete set of five armor pieces while in wolf form. This armor is crafted through [[Blacksmithing]].* [[Spirit Fox]] - No visual equipment.=== Animal Transformation ===;[[Cow]]{{Spoiler|Methods of turning into a Cow|* Receive damage from the Rage Attack ''Crushing Knockback Curse'' by [[Maronesa]] in the [[Crystal Cavern]].

Newly transformed [[Beast Forms]] quickly discover that many shopkeepers shun animals, refusing to speak with use them. In the town of [[Serbule]], shopping and training services once offered in humanoid form will be rescinded by [[Marna]], [[Joeh]], [[Elahil]], and [[Tadion]]. If humanoid form is regained, normal access to animal-hating NPCs will return. * Some NPCs can be bribed to speak with animals, such as [[Hulon]] in [[Serbule]]. The method to bribe NPCs varies. Sometimes the NPCs offer a quest, at other times they want a bribe of MudbathCouncils.* NPCs that refuse to speak to [[Beast Forms]] can be picky. They may shun only "scary" forms, Frenzyusually [[Spider]], [[Lycanthropy|Lycanthrope]], Porcine Alertnessand [[Giant Bat]].* Both [[Spider]] and [[Spirit Fox]] gain access to abilities allowing them to temporarily appear humanoid.* Discoverable [[Words of Power]] exist that can temporarily project a humanoid form.: - ''Word of Power: Human Illusion ... Speaking this word makes you look like a human for 90 seconds. Townsfolk and shopkeepers will perceive you as a human and their memories will be temporarily altered so that they think you've always been a human.'': - ''Word of Power: Elf Illusion ... Speaking this word makes you look like an elf for 120 seconds. Townsfolk and shopkeepers will perceive you as an elf and their memories will be temporarily altered so that they thing you've always been an elf.'': - ''Word of Power: Rakshasa Illusion ... Speaking this word makes you look like a rakshasa for 150 seconds. Townsfolk and shopkeepers will perceive you as a rakshasa and their memories will be temporarily altered so that they think you've always been a rakshasa. ''

While some NPCs shun [[RabbitBeast Forms]]s , others will only be willing to interact with them. There are [[Awakened]] animals in small camps and outposts across Alharth that offer alternative places to train and shop.==== Animal Town ====[[Animal Town]] is a stealthy playstylehidden refuge in [[Sun Vale]] populated by various species of talking animals. Some of the residents are [[Awakened]], while others are were-creatures, or were granted intelligence by unknown methods. Humans, Rakshasa, Orcs, Fairies, and Elves are forbidden from entering the town, and will be forcibly removed by the deadly [[Summoned Guardian]]s.

Individuals who have recently transformed into one of the [[DruidBeast Forms]]s by will find themselves should NOT be classified as a Beast Form. However Druids are given spells that will allow them unable to assume certain beast appearances like speak with most NPCs in [[DeerAnimal Town]], [[Raven]] and [[Mallard]].  === Advantages === With [[Cow]]s your advantages are you are a tank, so you until 180 real-world minutes have high survivability. Cows also have a nice sprint skill called Moo of Determination, and they have the ability to produce their own milk, which helps in crafting skills such as Cheesemaking, or Cookingbeen played. If you are a vegetarian Cow you have loose track of the ability to produce milk every 3 or 4 minutes, while if your a non-vegetarian time you can only produce it every 5 minutes. Players can also milk other Player Cows every 15 minutes. Both are considerably better than waiting an hour to milk a specific cow. [[Deer]]s have the ability to jump faster/higher, they also have AoE Tauntstransformed, while Cow only has single target taunts. They have the ability also to summon another Deer Pet to help out in battle. [[SpiderNorbert]]s have the ability to use Insidious Illusion to talk to Animal Hating NPCs, it uses up a Moonstone. They also have pig can tell you when the ability at lvl 50 to produce their own Spiderweb, which does help other residents will tolerate talking with crafting such as Tailoring, especially if they want to make their own Spider Carapace Armor.you!* Befriending the residents of [[PigAnimal Town]]s have two sidebar abilities Terror Dash, which gives them a sprint bonus, and Truffle Sniff which allows them to sniff is highly encouraged for mushrooms, I believe the higher the Truffle Sniff the higher lvl Mushroom you are likely to get, or the higher the chances you are of getting a mushroom. all [[RabbitBeast Forms]]s are who wish to remain in their forms long-term. The NPCs of the only Beast Form capable town offer training of using [[Ice MagicBeast Forms#Beast Skills|Beast Skills]] by equipping a special headgear item. [[Giant Bat]]s have the ability of Echolocation which allows them to see in the dark, such as dungeons (especially helpful with Claudia)abilities, and they do have the ability to Fly, they also have the ability provide storage exclusive to turn players into Bats, so be careful when facing them in PvP. [[Lycanthropy|WolvesBeast Forms]] have the ability to switch in and out of wolf form(except during Full Moon, when they are stuck for 3 days), they also have specific Wolf-Altar/Wolf benefits, the altar can unlock higher lvl abilities, has the option of being a storage space, and by completing quests for the Altar you can get bonuses like Extra Armor, Power, Health, Damage Mitigation, Bonus Attack %, or a Sprint Speed bonus. === Disadvantages = Animal Outposts ====<B>Becoming a Werewolf / choosing for ; [[LycanthropyKur Mountains]] is a PERMANENT CHOICE. It has some impactful consequences when doing that. It CANNOT be reversed.</B> One of the disadvantages : North of being an animal is [[Beast SpeechKur Tower]]. While typing in chat certain words can be changed to on the far side of the river, a soundsmall crystal-representationguarded outpost run by foxes watches over the region. <br>Example: Inside a cavern carved into a Cow might type "I'll wait for you near the Serbule well". But after pressing Enter the sentence may read as "I'll wait moo you near the Moooooo mooo". The words that will be replaced will be random.  Certain NPCs will not speak to you while you are an animal. Especially the ones in mountain, a group of [[SerbuleWarden]]s stay safe and plan for their future. But This cavern is magically-sealed to counter that there are Animal NPCs in [[Animal Town]] which is outsiders and those in humanoid forms.; [[Sun ValeGazluk]], who will speak to you, but only after you have been an Animal for 3 in game hours. Another disadvantage is your inability to use skills that require hands, such as Sword, Fire/Ice Magic, Shield, and your inability to cut/gather wood, since skills that require : In the use northeast mountains of Hands do not workthe inner ring, since animals do not have hands (or thumbs)a small Animal Camp provides a warm refuge from the cold. ====Crafting Gear for Animal FormsUseful NPCs to Befriend ====Observant players have noticed that it's hard to craft gear for Outside of animal-cursed playersrun towns and outposts, there are a few NPCs that Animal Forms should become acquainted with. There's only one ; [[Gems|gemSerbule]] that covers all animal curses, so you often craft Deer gear when you really want Spider gear, and so on. In the next update (edit me), there will be a way to inscribe * [[Sigil Scripting|runesFlia]] into those gems- A fairy east of Serbule Keep, so that you can attune the gem she offers shopkeeper services in any easy to one specific animal curse. You'll want to get your reach location for lower-level [[Sigil ScriptingBeast Forms]] skill to level 25 to be able to use those techniques. === General tips regarding playing in an Animal Form ===For general advice, avoid playing as an animal unless absolutely certain, and after you have explored zones such as Serbule and Etilbule as a human, and gotten at least some storage space, NPC favors done, and gotten used to the general feel of the game. Because starting off as an Animal can be hard or trying for a new player. Be aware that the Animal Forms stack. If you are a cow, and drink a * [[Deer JuiceHarry the Wolf]] potion, you will appear to be a Deer. However you are also still cursed as a Cow. So after drinking an Un-Deer Juice, you will not be A Lycanthrope shopkeeper in human formthe Serbule garden, but will be a Cow again. When just starting animal say something in nearby chat every 5 min or so. That way you will get exp in your Harry speaks with [[Beast SpeechForms]]naturally, and won't bother people in global. 3-sylabe word of powers include ones that will grant you illusion, making you look like elf for 2 minbut requires extra effort by humanoid forms who want to converse with him. can be helpfull when talking to npcs You definately should start working on favor in ; [[Animal TownEltibule]] asap, especialy if you are full time animal (eg - not wolf)  * [[JumperSuspicious Cow]]- Grazing outside of Eltibule Keep, this guardian of the region offers training and shopkeeper services.; [[RaulKur Mountains]] and * Along the northwestern beach, Lycanthropes [[NorbertSanja]] in and [[Sun ValeJace Soral]]'s guard a small camp and campfire.; [[Animal TownIlmari]] offers * [[StorageLumpfuzz]] only for players in animal form- A traveling Elven Spellhound and merchant.  ====Seek out special =NPC'sShopkeepers that speak to Beast Forms====={{ #dpl: | category = NPCs | category =Shopkeeper | notcategory =Zones | notcategory =NPCs by Area | notcategory =MechanicsThere are unique opportunities for animal players.

===General Tips for Beast Forms =Returning ==* It is advised that new characters wait to Human become a [[Beast Forms|Beast Form (]], especially a [[Lycanthropy|Lycanthrope]], until they have explored [[Serbule]], [[Serbule Hills]], and [[Eltibule]]. For characters with low-level Combat Skills, transforming into a [[Beast Forms|Beast Form]] and losing access to many shopkeepers and other services can be a surprise. Until [[favor]] is built up with NPC Shopkeepers that speak to animals, income and progress will likely temporarily)====plummet. In order * If a [[Beast Forms|Beast Form]] sounds fun to try, it may be wise to make "being obtain a method of removing the form before transformation. If an animal" unprepared character drinks a viable path {{Item|Spider Juice}}, they will need to fight their way through the entire game, [[Serbule Crypt]] to reach the NPC selling the next update (Sept 2014) adds some high{{Item|Un-level Spider Juice}}... or rely on a helpful adventurer. * [[Beast Forms]] stack. If a Rakshasa cursed by [[Maronesa]] into a [[Cow]] drinks a {{Item|Deer Juice}}, they will transform into a [[Words of PowerDeer]] that can helpand loose access to have Cow abilities active in combat. These Words apply When they drink an illusion {{Item|Un-Deer Juice}}, they will return to you Cow form instead of Rakshasa. If that makes you look like Rakshasa also happens to be a human for a minute [[Lycanthropy|Lycanthrope]], they will be forced from either Cow or so -- just long enough Deer forms into wolf during the full moon. When the moon ends, they will return to talk to NPCs that ignore animals!whichever form they were before the moon phase began.

Completing quests this way * A common method to improve [[Beast Speech]] is to send a fairly laborious process, because you have to research the Words and each Word is usable only once. It is intended that being an animal is message in a hard play styleprivate channel every five minutes or so. The "human form" Words This will raise Beast Speech without Global having to hear sentences of Power just ensure that animals Moo/Baa/Naa which can access important skills and equipment that they will need happen at higher level, even though it will be a bit very low levels of a pain[[Beast Speech]].

Animal forms * [[Beast Forms]] (and specifically Cow at first), was were at first 'a fluke' by the Dev'sDevelopers.Citan / Eric originally only intended the Animal forms Beast Forms to be a very temporary curse. Intended , intended only as 'punishment' and to be cured ASAP. <br>He / they were was surprised to find that certain players wanted to continue playing in that their animal form. And forms, and subsequently the different animal forms and their abilities and playstyle were further developed.
