Shifter bug?

Maybe Im the only one, but every time im killed when polymorphed (druid and shifter forms), if my HP are still above -10 then i am unshifted then reshifted. I now have planty of HP but cant move and the monsters continue to hack away at my corpse. If they get me blow 0 but above -10 it starts all over again. This continues untill they finally manage to get me below -10.

I have seen this happen to 1 other person, and it hurt the team because we couldnt do anything to help him. Am RD scroll is wasted if used and heal kits still leave him lying on the ground helpless.

also, on a seperate note, whenever I shift I lose the extra spells I get for my ammy and for my racial +2 wisdom. This means that I have to redo my spellbook every time I rest if i shifted in between.

yep! bioware left nwn with a LOT of shifter bugs... there are more!

-if you pick up an item while shifted - you de/reshift but lose all your merged bonuses. (so if you pick up a relic, or kill an enemy on TC ground [gaining a random item from them] while shifted your shift will be FUBAR).

-sometimes if you die from temporary hitpoints or con bonus running out, and your shift has a weapon, your real weapon will be lost forever, and in it's place you'll get the morphed weapon instead (which is usually unusable - like the kobold ss).

-the spellslots from items thing always happens even with a wizard/sorc/etc.. shifts using polymorph/tenzers/etc..

-i've heard that some of the unarmed feats do NOT work on the unarmed shifter, can't remember which ones though... it's been a while since I played my 103AC monk/shifter on ns3.5..

-you can't use a lot of items while shifted, some abilities do work, at least you can down pots

-i think there are more than this too...

Yes Bioware didn't treat the shifters to kindly. The only weapon feat you can take to help is improved crit. taking weapon focus unarmed will not improve your AB while shifted. The death bug has been a long time irritation and if I remember correctly some of forms have unlimited spells but some of those don't work the drow darkness and illithid (sp?) blast only seem to able to be cast twice then nothing unless you shift back and forth then get another 2.

if you find yourself dead but alive either have someone kill you completely and rez you, or log and come back and get a rez that way......cuz if you log the game reads you as dead anyway.

Is there any way we can get all of this added to the shifter sticky up above? Its already there and seems pointless to only list 1 bug when there are so many.
