> Silverback - Best lagging move of any form short of quest forms; 2nd most tanky of all the offensive forms

Can it get better than trip lag? Is its lag blocked by bash protection?

> Komodo (old?) - If it's been nerfed...well it probably should have been.

Is this mainly for the regen, or the ability to plague? If regen, is there another defense form w/ better regen?

> Shark - DAMAGE IS KING. BOW BEFORE DAMAGE
> Eel - NO LAG IS KING. BOW BEFORE LAG.

Eel is nasty, but seems like there's something to be said for water forms that are amphibious, depending on what your other focus is. I forget which are amphibious. Walrus and alligator for sure. Alligator gets you regen as well, right?

> Falcon - Um...it's fast and hits hard.
> Golden Eagle - What I said above. I'd be fine with hummingbird/vulture as well, depending on other forms.

I've had falcon and osprey before, but it was forever ago and I didn't fight very many other air forms. I was led to believe golden eagle had the best all around melee, but I can't verify that. Eagle hits the hardest AFAIK. Horned Owl's night vision seems like a huge deal if you plan to be hunting thieves/assassins/rangers. Hummingbird's basically a flying defense form. Seems like it'd be great if you were scarab, since then you'd have a nightwalker to do damage and other air forms would have trouble fleeing from you.

By no means I am a vet, but having played many shifters and ALMOST having tried all the forms,

Falcon Lion are by far the best for pure pk goodness. (n/t)

Maybe for chasing, but a liger would whoop the crap out of a falconlion.

hummingbird ate a nerf - alligator is an offense form not water.

Nurok October 16, 2015 05:01AM

ah, that's right. so maybe alligator deserves mention among the best offense forms by virtue of being amphibious and having regen. nt

Isildur(VIP) October 16, 2015 05:49AM

Alligator has no melee defense aside from slash resist.

SomeOneSpecial October 16, 2015 10:31AM

Maybe, by why not croc amongst defensive forms then? (n/t)

xrus October 16, 2015 06:03AM

sure. if you're going to go defense, then croc probably deserves consideration because its amphibious. txt

What happened to hummingbird? (n/t)

wrathpuppet October 16, 2015 05:05AM

Much less tanky than when Cyrn had it. (n/t)

Why not tiger? nt
