Shapeshifting feats, items and archetypes

[draxar]

I'm updating my shapeshifting guide (Polymorphamory), and planning on adding a section on ways to enhance shapeshifting. So, suggestions? Basically, feats, items, and archetypes are what I'm after.

I'm aware of relatively few feats apart from ones that enhance Wild Shape specifically, the Wild armour and the Polymorphic pouch, and a few archetypes - Rageshaper, Brown Fur Transmuter.

Not particularly after builds. 'Feat X and Feat Y combine well to do Z' is handy, but not a "Here's a 1-20 character".

Disguise kits.

Disguise yourself, then change shape, then disguise yourself again. That way, mundane perception has a hard time recognising you and magic-piercing examinations may still get the wrong idea about your original features.

Guess worth mentioning that Aasimar with the many forms revelation from the dark tapestry mystery can have early access to greater polymorph due to their favored Oracle class bonus (10th level on an oracle instead of level 15).

Acutally I think they have to wait til 11th as that revelation comes online at 3rd and they can't put FC bonues in it til they have the revelation.

This post has some interesting build ideas when going for small size shapes and ways to boost damage and utility.

Note that using Cave Druid at 10th opens oozes which can include some very impressive slimes from Bestiary 3 and 4, including one that does Wis drain on a hit and fly.

Keep in mind Melee Tactics Toolbox is coming out soon and may have melee options we can use.

Monks adding pummeling style can be useful for dealing with the DR problem. Adding pummeling charge can provide pounce to otherwise non-pouncing creatures.

Goliath Druid in Giant Hunters Handbook can do a modified giant form early.
