With a shield you can use a weapon 2-Handed or use two weapons and still have a you're shield armor bonus if you're a shifter. For Druids that normally can't wear armor or shield, while wildshaped, you can use both if they have the Wild ability.

Can the Wild enchantment from MotW be placed on shields? If so, what Druid or Shifter wouldn't have one? Dwarmaj

A Druids Wild Shape, at level 5, allows a Druid to change into any small/medium animal reguardless of HD. A shifter of level 7 could change into a huge creature. Why couldn't a Shifter 7/Druid 5 use his one use of WS to become a huge animal with no HD limitation? He's taking the size he's...

Does this allow a shifter to get around the HD limitations of Greater Wild Shape when using their daily uses of Wild Shape (no HD limitation with Wild Shape)? Is the lack of a HD limitation a benefit? If I have a Druid 5/Shifter 7 and he wanted to become a Bronze dragon, using GWS, he'd be...

What is the penalty if any for a creature uses a weapon in addition to a natural attack. Instead of Claw/Claw/Bite could a troll use a Greatsword/Bite? How about a Mindflayer, could he use his tentacles in addition to a weapon? Dwarmaj

Got a response from the Sage reguarding Shifters in Black Pudding form: **************************************************** Questions by me: If a Shifter is hit while in Black Pudding form, should he be allowed to control both halves? (Split is an Extraordinary ability that he is suppose to...

Not sure on #1, but belive you just get the natural attacks. I don't believe high HD animals get iteritive attacks, but then again if they had class levels... #2: Shapechanger isn't on the Shifter list as far as types of creatures they can change into. #3: Everyone's different. For my shifter...

How much should it cost? The MM says how much hide it would take to create the armor and that Armorsmiths only charge the normal Masterwork fees, but how much should a suit of armor cost? Other than looking cool, theirs no benifit (other than for Druids) to wearing Dragonhide over normal metal...

MotW gives Shifters the ability to change into many different forms, but doesn't give guidlines on how to handle some of the more difficult ones. 1) How should an Oozes Split ability be handled? Are each piece under the Shifters control? Are they separate entities or do they revert to pieces of...

Not unless you're flanking the prone person as well. You don't loose your Dex bonus when flanked. Check out table 8-8 of PHB. Dwarmaj

If you're going to be a Barbarian/Sorcerer, why not a Dragon Disciple? You'll end up with a few more spells, breath weapon, wings, large size. If you have Tome & Blood, take a look at the class. Dwarmaj

Wild shape presented in the PHB was based on Polymorph self so the duration was 1 hour/level. However, the revised version in MotW doesn't mention Polymorph self/other so I believe the shape lasts until the Druid changes to a new form. Dwarmaj

It seems to me that the dragon would be at a disadvantage in an Anti-Magic field. No Breath weapon, spell like abilities, or spells. The only thing the Dragon has left is it's AC (not too bad), and natural attacks. A Fighter heavy party would make short work of a dragon in this situation. Dwarmaj

Under the listings for Tiny or Smaller and Huge or Greater it states that all familiars grant their masters the Alertness feat, improved evasion, emapthic link, and shared spells. Does this extend to familiars of small to large masters? Dwarmaj

Yes, MotW has a new description of Wild Shape that doesn't mention Polymorph. It also states that the druid gains all racial abilities, feats, and extraordinary abilities. Spell-like and Supernatural are not gained. Dwarmaj

I don't believe Barkskin stacks with the natural armor of animals or other creatures. From PHB: Since the AC bonus is a natural armor bonus, it does not stack with any natural armor the subject may already have. The description in the SRD doesn't mention the non-stacking part though. Dwarmaj

Gold Dragon looks good, but because of the HD limit you'd have to be 20th level. You'd only have to be 14th for the Planetar. Dwarmaj

Are you sure weapons don't change? Greater Wildshape states that non-melded equipment alters it's size to match the new form. Weapons are included under equipment in other size altering magic (Enlarge, Expansion, Righteous Might). Dwarmaj

Best form I've seen so far for a Shifter would be a Planetar. Str 25, AC 32 (you could wear armor or bracers to up it even higher), SR 30, Regen 10 (or has that been errata'd to Fast Healing, Immunity to Cold/Acid, Resistance 20 to Fire, Plus darkvision. Dwarmaj

If a Shifter with a Longspear changes into a Hill Giant, will the Longspear turn into a Huge Longspear? Would his reach increase to 15'? What range would he threaten? Dwarmaj
