# Forum:Gaining levels while polymorphed and wearing Amulet of Unchanging
&lt; Forum:Watercooler

If I gain a level while polymorphed and wearing the Amulet of Unchanging, will my hit points for this new form increase? I heard some people ascend as a master mind flayer, but it seems to me that the lack of HP would be a problem.

Yes. I believe you gain +1d8 hit points each level. Naturally this is not kept if you polymorph again, so it's of little use without the amulet of unchanging. You can also drinking blessed [extra or full] potions of healing to raise your maximum hit points of your current form - however unlike with level gain if you do this while polymorphed your main form gets no bonus. -- Qazmlpok 02:47, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
