So, here's what I get:
- Polymorphed creatures lose abilities that are based on their original bodies.
- polymorphed creatures don't actually change creature type
This makes sense to me for sure. However, I'm having trouble seeing if the abilities that depend on original form also apply to abilities that cover all creatures of a certain type. Is there a simple answer to this?
No. Wildshape does not remove any abilities based on your original body.
So you can have this crazy Tendriculous wildshaped into a Tiger who pounces you and gobbles you up horribly.
