[QUOTE="ForceUser, post: 1064797, member: 2785"] Last month, Andy Collins clarified on his messageboards that, while wildshaped, a druid retains the use of any magic items that can be used by his new form (I.E., a wolf can wear a necklace), and that DMs should give players wide latitude when deciding what can and can't be used by a new form. My barbarian/druid wields a +1 adamantine glaive. If he turns into a dire ape, would the glaive therefore remain when he changes, since in dire ape form he has hands and could continue to wield it? Also, dire apes are Large size. Would the glaive therefore become a Large size weapon if he's holding it when he wildshapes into an ape? If not, what happens to it? Remains the same size, imposing penalties for using a weapon not of your size category? Melds into your form even though you have hands? Caveat: I know that it's likely no one on this forum has a clue what the rule would be, but I am curious to read your opinions. :) Hope it works out in my favor, I wanna be the glaive-wielding raging barbarian dire ape with Combat Reflexes and a 15-foot zone of control! :D [/QUOTE]
