[QUOTE="Nareau, post: 169941, member: 969"] [b]This came up in our group...[/b] I don't know of any official ruling on this. I would think that he loses the spell slot, and can't use it again until he's rested for a day. The same would hold true for any spellcaster who takes ability damage in their main stat. The druid in our group wears a Periapt of Wisdom. Everytime he shapeshifts, his magic gear goes inactive, causing him to lose a 4th level spell. We house-rule that when this happens, he effectively loses the slot he had. When he returns to his natural form, he regains the slot (but it's empty). He then needs to spend 15 minutes meditating in order to prepare a spell in that slot. This allows him to change out his prepared spells ("Dang, I shoulda prepared Cure Serious Wounds instead of Scrying! Better take off the periapt, put it back on, and meditate for a while...") But that's never come up. The real effect it has is that he can't fly into the enemy's barracks as a bird, shift back, then pepper them with Flamestrikes. [/QUOTE]
