Hey everyone, first post. I've been building a 9th level druid, and was just about done and putting together some flashcards for my wild shape forms when I noticed something, and I wasn't sure if I was adding stats together incorrectly or what. (The druid does not have armor with the wild enhancement either, but looking at these numbers I'm considering dropping a feat in craft arms/armor so I can afford it) Here's what I saw.

Ok, I thought. Maybe I'll try sticking to elemental forms. Slightly better, but still vulnerable.

So what gives? The only wild shape form I see as viable for my build and concept as a casting druid is to turn into something that can fly, like an air elemental or some kind of flying animal that can stay out of reach. Am I wrong here? Is there some way to use wild shape without becoming a massive target that will die in two rounds?
There is a cheaper (and absurd) solution, I think. When you asume the form of an animal you're still proficient whit light and medium armor, at 9th lvl you could mantain that form for 9hs, so you could buy an armor for "unusual creature" and wear it in your wild shape or make your companion carry that armor(whit Ant Maul, if needed) to wherever you go and wear it there xD
