Non elite forms

I sort of came up with these real quick and I tried to balance them next to the elite forms and through out some basic names for them.
But anyhow, I was wondering - why a shapeshifter with only elite god form shapes?
Granted the dervish isn’t a druidesqe shapeshifter, but one would be nice… and the dervish is setting in that slot right now.
I don’t think there needs to be a lot of shapes, just a few relevant ones to open opportunities for other elite combinations.
This is my take on it.

Boar
Form. For 8.. 30 seconds you are immune to Weakness and Crippling and gain +10 armor penetration. If you hit with a critical attack it can not be blocked.
E: 15 C:2 R: 50

Hawking
Form. For 8.. 30 seconds you are immune to Blindness and your attacks can not be evaded. Your attack speed is 25% slower but you have a 25% chance of critical hitting.
E: 15 C:2 R: 50

Serpent
Form. For 8.. 20 seconds you are immune to Dazed and move 15% faster. If your skill is interrupted it recharges 50% faster and you gain 1.. 5 energy and 18.. 88 health.
E: 10 C:2 R: 30

Root
Form. For 8.. 30 seconds you are immune to Bleeding, Poison and Desease and have +10 armor. Every second one ally adjacent to you is healed for 12.. 54 health if their health is below 60% while you are attacking.
E: 15 C:2 R: 50

So in other words, you'd be able to constantly be in a form? I think that's why they're elite. So you can't have more than one form and you can't constantly be in a form. Although it'd be nice, in the current state of the game, only dervishes can really stay in a form longer than 1 second, considering the 2 second casting time, that's worthless for Skill Hunter title aswell... Sad...

Even so, your skills seem to unbalanced to be non-elite =/

Being kept to only one form to change to per skill par is fine.

How about god forms that aren't complete? They would only be half as effective as the elites and they wouldn't completely change you into a new being but instead just a humanoid wearing similiar armor.

Either that or forms like a "ghostly" form that would change you into a grim reaper looking form that was clear blue like other ghosts with an animated big robe that wouldn't show what sex you were.

Could be a few of them.. ones that slightly increase attack or defense but have high energy costs.

Rangers could have forms too like the animal forms you described.

I don't really like the first idea I suggested but going to leave it in the posts incase anyone wants to build off of it.

3rd and 4th seem overpowered IMO.

Root is definatly over-powered.

But all these people who scram for new races. you could have;

Form of Dwarf
For 3-15 seconds you cannot be knocked down.

Form of Tengu
For 3-15 seconds you chance of dealing a critical hit increases by 5-20%

small things which say match warrior stances, or assassin skills in effectiveness, but take up the form slot, assuming you can only be in 1 form at a time, like stances would be quite fun.
