[QUOTE="shadowoflameth, post: 8949347, member: 62336"] Agree. In this play test, you can be a wolf, you can even be a wolf that looks like a gorilla as flavor, fine, but you can’t knock the target prone like a wolf without using your bonus action. I recommend that 1. If the Temporary Hit Points are broken, then say, 5thp for a medium beast, 10 for a large, 15 for huge and 20 for gargantuan. 2. If knowing any beast is too much, say you start knowing 1 beast form per point of Wisdom bonus, and that you can learn others as you see them or level in Druid. allow swimming forms at a later level, and flying form after that. Let the form have its own actions including special attacks and abilities except it gets your wisdom bonus to x,y, and z. 3. There is no good reason to give Elemental Wild Shape only to the Circle of the Moon. Make Wild shape a bonus action for all druids. In this play test, I have to think to come up with reasons for the Druid to Wild Shape at all at any level. If swimming is unavailable ‘til 7th and flying until 10th, being tiny does not need to be restricted to 11th. At 1st level, the druid can potentially have a familiar, and by 7th level the Druid can use Polymorph to take other forms anyway (Including tiny and flying forms). Other full caster classes can use the Fly spell by 5th. It is not unbalanced in any manner. Perhaps make feats that allow Elemental Wild Shape, Tiny Wild Shape, or other creature types. [/QUOTE]
