[QUOTE="King-Panda, post: 4029377, member: 32115"] I hate to rez a dead thread, but I have a question that fits well here. One of my players is set on playing a Gestalt Githzerai Druid//Monk/Warshaper (from Complete Warrior). I am using Rich Burlew's Polymorph rules (link at bottom), which state this about natural attacks: Attack: The base creature gains all natural weapon attacks of the assumed shape. Natural weapon attacks are made using the base creature's base attack bonus, but using the assumed shape's attack routine. The creature may thus not use the same natural weapon to make multiple attacks as it might with a manufactured weapon. Damage: The polymorphed creature's natural weapons inflict the same base damage as those of the assumed shape, modified by the creature's new Strength score. Don't forget that a creature with only one natural weapon adds 1-1/2 its Strength bonus to the damage for that attack. These are his new rules for wildshape: Wild Shape (Su): At 5th level, the druid gains the ability to change its shape into that of an animal once per day. The druid may apply the Polymorphed template to himself, as long as the assumed shape is that of an Animal of Small or Medium size. The effect lasts for 1 hour/druid level, or until he chooses to change back. Changing form is a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. Use the druid's class level for all effects related to caster level, rather than total Hit Dice; any other class that grants wild shape abilities stack with druid levels to determine caster level. This ability otherwise functions exactly like the Animorph spell. Knowing what the Animorph spell gives you isn't relevant in this case, but you can read it if you like (Link at bottom). Here's my question: Does his Unarmed strike and any natural weapons he gains from wildshaping stack, change, or modify each other in any way? Could he use his natural weapon damage with his flurry of blows? Could he include his natural attacks (bite, claw) in his flurry of blows? Can he use his unarmed strikes in wildshape form? It states he can't use his natural attacks with mutliple attacks like he could with a manufactured weapon, but does that apply to his unarmed strike? In regards to the Warshaper, how do their Morphic Weapons apply to this situation? [/QUOTE]
