Greater Wildshape II
Type of Feat: Class
Prerequisite: Shifter 3
Required for: None
Specifics: The character may shift into various creature forms (Minotaur, Harpy, Gargoyle) 3x/day. The shapes are replaced by stronger Epic versions at level 11.
Use: Selected
This form of shapeshifting cannot be dispelled.
Bonuses from weapons, armor, shield, helmet, boots, cloak and jewelry merge into all three shapes. Base (non-magical) AC from shields merge but not from armor. Bracer/gauntlet/glove properties merge except for attack bonuses and bonus damage. Off-hand weapon and ranged weapon properties never merge. Unlike in the original campaign, all AC bonuses merge, not just the highest.
Normal Forms receive :
Cleave Weapon Finesse +12 Discipline
Epic Forms receive :
Cleave Weapon Finesse +20 Discipline
Weapon focus feats now work with all forms that use weapons. Feats must be taken for the weapon the specific form wields to apply. Weapon focus feats do not work on unarmed forms.
