So. I just had an idea for metamorphosis that would both fix the infinite bit fountain and make it potent but not horribly abusable. I think. Would make it a five point must though.
Each level of metamorphosis, you get a new scan creature command. This would be either touch range or long distance, but I think long distance would be nicer, as it would let weaker characters physically use the skill. After using it, it would replace the command with a transform into x command. This would give you access to the new body form and whatever MIT's and skills it has. But not equipment. You keep your inventory. So, now you have an equimax form, which you can equip from your inventory. As you level up, actual levels and not mutation, all your forms gain levels as well. This gives you options, such as turning into a smart for to gain access to tinker, or a for with multiple legs to run away. The balance is that all the skills would share a cool down, and it would be long. Like, double the current cool down minimum. So, you wouldn't be able yo rapid fire switch skills and mutation sets, as it would incur a hefty food cost even if you waited it out in safety. Oh, and it should share health and food meters, but perhaps heal you somewhat when you change.
