It's a sure thing that if you get a specific minor form, you *won't* get the corresponding major form. This applies for sure to offense and defense. I don't know about the rest, to be honest.

The theory behind it is, some major forms are nearly identical to minor forms, just a lot better at what they do. If you get the tortoise, you won't get armadillo. If you get hare, no mongoose. (Get the idea? If you had armadillo/tortoise, when would you ever use tortoise?)

If you get wolf, no tiger. (They're both high-dex forms)
If you get boar, no ram. (They're both low dex, high damage forms)

I'm curious if other patterns have been noticed.
