With the dawning of the new saga, it is my delight to reveal the new pathways and transformations for our races (plus some edits to existing transformations)!
Saiyans:
A person that learns Saiyan Soul (or False Super Saiyan) would not have access to Super Oozaru, even if they regrew their tail. This would give them the option of having a good early game, or a stronger mid-game. These are also accessible by Saiyan Hybrids.
Arcosians:
In this idea, Arcosian's Royal form is bumped up to a x19 and given much earlier to make it a bit more palatable to live with for the next 150,000 PL. Arcosians are further booned by giving a PL gains bonus in lower forms, their Suppressed Form of 20%, of their Brute Form of 10%, and of their Monster Form by 5% (True Form gives no gains). If any higher form is taken during a thread, then the entire thread is automatically graded at that higher form rate. These bonuses would automatically end when the Mastered/Full-Powered True Form is taken at 150,000 PL.
Androids:
As per a slimmed-down and balanced Android Shop, which will be implemented alongside these changes, at 100,000 PL Androids can choose between an Absorber Module or a High Energy Module. The Absorber allows the Android to absorb the life-force of its opponent. Upon defeating or killing an opponent in a Saga or DE, an Android may absorb 5% of their base PL. Due to heat restrictions, this can only happen once per thread. Also once per thread, the Android may absorb an incoming attack that is within 120% of their PL, and use a Absorber Special to shoot back half of the absorbed energy plus its own. Due to extreme energy-use efficiency, High Energy Android's Overdrive servicing cost is lowered by twenty percent with each progressive tier -- 800 Zeni at 100k PL, 600 Zeni at 150k PL, 400 Zeni at 230k PL, 200 Zeni at 300k PL, and finally at 400k PL the Overdrive cost disappears, as progressive upgrades have better managed the high-energy. This gives the Android the choice between saving Zeni or earning more PL and being deadlier in a fight. This will implement the spirit of the shop that was voted in without having to worry about things that were voted in like Calibration, which was horribly unbalanced in favor of Androids.
Demons:
Namekians:
Namekians no longer have to ICly fuse or defuse in order to ascend. They can do such things as spirit journeys and intense meditation in order to progress.
Bio-Android
Bio-Androids no longer have to absorb PC players to progress through their two bottlenecks. They may progress as is, but with this path where they must sacrifice with the poorest middle game for the best late-middle.
Mechanization:
Every species save for Majin, Bio-Android, and Android may mechanize at any time given a Saga Defeat and the expenditure of 1000 Zeni. This replaces their tiers with an Android's tiers, and gives them access to Overdrive. This also replaces their Unique Characteristic. Note that Un-Mechanization is impossible without the Dragon Balls.
Saiyans:
Saiyan Soul(x6) | Requires No Tail, Saga Defeat, rage/desperation and 10,000 PL. |
Super Oozaru(x22) | Requires Tail, Mastered Super Saiyan, Super Oozaru Training and Super Oozaru Mastery. |
A person that learns Saiyan Soul (or False Super Saiyan) would not have access to Super Oozaru, even if they regrew their tail. This would give them the option of having a good early game, or a stronger mid-game. These are also accessible by Saiyan Hybrids.
Arcosians:
Royal Form(x19) | Requires No Mechanization, 200,000 PL. |
Ultimate Form(x47) | Requires No Mechanization, 500,000 PL. |
In this idea, Arcosian's Royal form is bumped up to a x19 and given much earlier to make it a bit more palatable to live with for the next 150,000 PL. Arcosians are further booned by giving a PL gains bonus in lower forms, their Suppressed Form of 20%, of their Brute Form of 10%, and of their Monster Form by 5% (True Form gives no gains). If any higher form is taken during a thread, then the entire thread is automatically graded at that higher form rate. These bonuses would automatically end when the Mastered/Full-Powered True Form is taken at 150,000 PL.
Androids:
Ex Machina(x40) | Requires 400,000 PL. |
As per a slimmed-down and balanced Android Shop, which will be implemented alongside these changes, at 100,000 PL Androids can choose between an Absorber Module or a High Energy Module. The Absorber allows the Android to absorb the life-force of its opponent. Upon defeating or killing an opponent in a Saga or DE, an Android may absorb 5% of their base PL.

Demons:
Makyan Giant(x13) | Makyo Star in effect, 70,000 PL, rage and/or desperation. |
Makaioshin(x40) | Requires 385,000 PL. |
Namekians:
Namekians no longer have to ICly fuse or defuse in order to ascend. They can do such things as spirit journeys and intense meditation in order to progress.
Bio-Android
Chrysalis(x11) | Choose No Absorb, 110,000 PL. |
Metamorphosis(x33) | 250,000 PL, replaces Perfect Form. All subsequent tiers open. |
Bio-Androids no longer have to absorb PC players to progress through their two bottlenecks. They may progress as is, but with this path where they must sacrifice with the poorest middle game for the best late-middle.
