The Slayer form is a powerful ability granted to the most dedicated follower of Bhaal. It usually appears as a form [[Orin the Red]] takes during her boss battle, and functions very similarly to [[Wild Shape]] or being [[Polymorphed]]. The user of the form takes on all the statistics of the Slayer, and all of their actions are replaced by the Slayer's own. With a powerful multiattack, a distance-closing leap, a devastating single attack, as well as an action that can inflict bleeding, the Slayer is an especially powerful form allowing the user to tear through their enemies with ease. | The Slayer form is a powerful ability granted to the most dedicated follower of Bhaal.

Conversely, access to the Slayer form will be permanently lost if The Dark Urge refuses to become Bhaal's Chosen after defeating Orin.}} | ||

* Similar to [[Wild Shape]], the player cannot speak while in Slayer form, but unlike Wild Shape they will not be able to temporarily shapeshift into their normal form to talk to [[companion]]s. They are also unable to take certain actions that require the ability to speak, such as activating the {{MdRarityItem|Filigreed Feywild Bell}}. | |||

* [[Piercing Growl | * The Slayer's attacks are not considered 'magical' for the purpose of ignoring [[Resistance|resistances]]. This means a player-controlled Slayer will deal half damage to enemies with non-magical resistance to bludgeoning/piercing/slashing damage (e.g. [[Wraith|Wraiths]]), and no damage to enemies with non-magical immunity to bludgeoning/piercing/slashing damage (e.g. [[Werewolf|Werewolves]]). | ||
