[QUOTE="Dr. NRG, post: 771171, member: 7697"] I haven't played a druid to levels that high, but I have played one to around 10th level. Given a non-urban situation, you're almost always better off being in animal form than in human form. You get better attacks, movement, senses, etc. than typical PC races. Natural spell is a must for this. In choosing/rolling stats, remember that when wildshaped, you get the str, con and dex of whatever you turn into. In terms of feats, poing blank shot or weapon focus scimitar don't buy you much when you're a bear or an eagle... Power attack and improved initiative may, though. If you plan to get into combat, beware the low natural ACs of most animals. You can easily run into a barbarian-type scenario in which the damage you can dish out would more than kill you in one round if turned against you. If you spend enough time wildshaped, get barding for your favorite form... this also applies to your animal companions. YMMV NRG [/QUOTE]
