Changing the shape of magic items

Thanks for the suggestions. I will allow it, with the caveat that, due to its permanent duration, it's still a valid target for dispelling later on. Since he's had a few targeted dispels thrown on him in his career, he may be leery of doing this with too many items.

So do you allow your druid players to cast Shilellagh?

Bwah-hah-hah ...

I think I'm missing the joke you're poking at me here lol...

What's wrong with Shilellagh and what I said earlier? You can't cast Shilellagh on a magical club... I'm confused

[edit] Oh I think I understand, you're saying that as soon as you cast Shilellagh, the club instantly becomes an invalid target for Shilellagh, and thus the spell immediately fails?

Eh, I could split hairs maybe and say that technically speaking, since Shilellagh grants a "+1 Enhancement bonus" that Shilellagh doesn't technically make the club a "magical" weapon, which would maybe work unless it's written somewhere that everything with an Enhancement bonus is automatically considered Magical.

The conundrum with shillelagh is that it can only be targeted on a non-magical weapon. Once the spell is cast, it becomes a magical weapon. Since it's no longer a valid target for the spell, does the spell then fail?

A magical weapon is defined as a weapon having a +1 or greater enhancement bonus.

Targeted dispel on him will not remove the magic on his objects, you need an area dispel.

I just noticed there isn't a craft check for polymorph. Much more powerfull than the fabicate spell.

As is expected in an 8th level vs. 5th level spell.

However, Fabricate isn't subject to Dispelling or even a Disjunction (Instant duration), while PAO is (temporary to Permanent duration). Both are subject to Break Enchantment, as they are Transmutations.
