Base movement speed (overland) and Wildshape


Rules Questions


If I am correct, beastshape, nor wildshape does not list anything about ground movement speeds.

My question is, do the rules list anywhere that you gain the base ground speed of the creature's form taken, or do you keep your base ground speed.

I shall check the polymorph rules later, and go over beastshape and wildshape again.

But I'm positive I didn't miss it.

If the rules don't list anything, I'll just go with getting the assumed forms base overland movement.

The answer to this question lies on page 211, through 212, under the polymorph section. Note that all the wildshape forms have the polymorph subtype, and so are covered here.

Specifically: "Your base speed changes to match that of the form you assume. If the form grants a swim or burrow speed, you maintain the ability to breathe if you are swimming or burrowing. The DC for any of these abilities equals your DC for the polymorph spell used to change you into that form."
