I want a character that focuses more on melee than spells so my idea is druid 5 warshaper 3, but one thing I am unsure about is if the druid and warshaper levels stack when calculating what forms are available. I think it should since it still won't be as powerful as a druid 8. ferocious slayer form with wildling clasped items, beastskin armor and a couple of feats that enhance claw and bite damage should work decent.
