It's great to have response this soon. Thank you.
There's just one more thing:

4) gain the natural attacks of the creature, A bite pls eight tentacles, modified by your new strength score.
The octopus' bite attack is indicated as +13(1d8+5). Now, with my stats the adjustment to large would give me the same strength as the octopus and thus the same +13(1d8+5), right?
But what if I fall 2 strength short, this lowers my STR mod by 1. Does this mean my bite attack would be +12(1d8+4) instead or is it a little more complicated than that?
