Viable? Just carry a blue potion or two on you at all times and there's no drawback from transforming and detransforming at will. It's been coded so that you can't do some normal essential interactions while transformed because her huge stat boosts to weak and sexy make it too absurdly easy to pass certain checks and become way too successful, so yeah you have to detransform at some point to carry on with certain normal gameplay features after combats.Does anyone know how to make Seawitch Lona viable? Or is she just a "transform at battles and then go back to normal at town" type of archetype
Depending on what your goals are, you can just ignore that and stay transformed, though. I liked to stay transformed for long periods of time while I'm out of the city farming encounters, while carrying nothing else to maximize my carry weight capacity, then detransform to return to city, personally. I'm currently in a very high wisdom build so the summons and her innate water strike skill are strongest, and it is fun.
