	The [[talisman]] forms can be a strong choice for Felids; many of the later forms give much-needed defense. Since Felids ~~can't~~ use armour and weapons, ~~and as they aren't fast, they don't lose much while in a form~~. To compensate, their Shapeshifting aptitude is poor, so it'll take more XP.		The [[talisman]] forms can be a strong choice for Felids; many of the later forms give much-needed defense. Since Felids are already unable to use armour and weapons, the forms have minimal penalties. To compensate, their Shapeshifting aptitude is poor, 1 below average, so it'll take more XP.

	Extra lives are a lot easier to regain in early Dungeon and Lair than in [[the Vaults]] onwards, which means early deaths are not as punishing as late game ones. The XP level gained from a [[potion of experience]] counts towards regaining an extra life (unless the player has reached XL 27).
