I have made a small update to Shift.
Shift difficulty is composed of several different components, including (but not limited to) the base difficulty for the shift, the difficulty for the shifter, the shiftee, the charisma factor and other factors.
I have now placed a cap in the first three parts of the formula (base + shifter + shiftee). It is a cap based on the base difficulty of the shift and should allow an Empath to be able to master all shifts eventually no matter what their current feature is.
To give an example, a level 70 Empath should be able to do all hair colors no matter what. This is probably overstated and will depend specifically on your skills rather than level.
Note that charisma checks and a few other factors are applied after the cap and can still adjust the difficulty slightly.
This is live in Prime at the moment and will go to Plat and TF later this week.
