Message: <blockquote data-quote="Li Shenron" data-source="post: 1512975" data-attributes="member: 1465">I have played Polymorph and Wild Shape in both ways over time, I don't think it makes that huge difference.HPs gained from increased Con are not real HPs since they go away but they still have a benefit for druids since Wild Shape lasts much longer than Polymorph.Allowing the new Con to affect HPs makes some creatures/forms more useful and other less useful, that's all. Maybe the only issue could be that a high-level druid with Natural spell could afford to have a very low Con and stay wildshaped all day long to make up for it. Until someone dispels her WS.To be honest, I am much more bothered by the irregularity of which abilities (nat/ex/su/sp) are granted by the new form and which abilities are kept from the original form, by the different spells of the chain: Disguise Self, Alter Self, Polymorph, Polymorph any object, Shapechange.By the rules, an Dwarf/Elf wizard (who naturally has darkvision/low-light vision) can alter_self into a member of his own race or even into himself, but loses darkvision/low-light vision when doing so because it's a racial extraordinary ability  :\</blockquote>
