WARNING - If you are polymorphed in any way shape or form, DO NOT take a level until you go back to your true form. There are several possible bugs that have been associated with this. From characters being invalidated due to an incorrect amount of skill points, which means the server will autoboot that character. To RDD stat bonuses not being applied at all, and a whole lot in between. As you can see this can really hose up your character. So please, return to your normal shape prior to clicking the level up button.

• This form of shapeshifting cannot be dispelled.
• Bonuses from armor, shield, helmet, boots, cloak, and jewelry merge into all shapes. Base (non-magical) AC from shields merge but not from armor. Bracer/gauntlet/glove properties merge except for attack bonuses and bonus damage. Weapon properties do not merge on unarmed shapes. Off-hand weapon and ranged weapon properties never merge. Unlike in the original campaign, all AC bonuses merge, not just the highest.
• Improved Critical, Overwhelming Critical, and Devastating Critical: Unarmed functions using dragon claws, but Weapon Focus and Epic Weapon Focus: Unarmed do not
