Can 'paws of the cheetah' be moved to the Armor category for partial shifts? It makes more sense that you give up dam redux for ability to dodge, but can still have an offensive partial.

As it stands, you can have dem redux and paws with your one non-enhanced dam attack. If I'm ranking solo (which I always am at this level) it makes paws not useful because I'd take horns/dam-redux over it any day.

From Helpfile
'PARTIAL SHIFTS'
The term 'partial shifts' applies to the following group of shapeshifter
spells, all of which involve changing the form of a part of the caster's body:

Offense/Utility:
Claw of the Lion Horns of the Bull Ears of the Bat
Paws of the Cheetah Fangs of the Serpent Hooves of the Gazelle
Tail of the Lizard

Armor:
Chitin of the Crab Hide of the Rhino
Scales of the Crocodile Shell of the Tortoise


A shapeshifter may only maintain one of these spells from each category
above at a time. To cancel one, simply cast a different one, or use the
REVERT command to restore yourself to your natural form. None of these
spells carry over during a full shapeshifting.

Repeat after me:
Paws of the Cheetah is the most useful partial shift.
