Polymorph Any Object for turning into fey, outsiders, aberations, etc

[thepuregamer]

So many people get hung up on how to calculate durations for PaO, but what about when you use it to turn into things greater polymorph spells does not mention?

What bonuses, abilities, etc do you get when turning into a fey, outsider, or other unmentioned creature?

Did this ever get answered?

Nope. I don't give any abilities other than the typical size changes and bonuses that come with that.

How about now?

My reading of the PAO entry is that it only adds two Types as options for results (dragon, plant), but does not allow fey, outsider, or other unmentioned creature Types. Please note that baleful polymorph only creates animals, not vermin (which means I've been running it wrong for years!).

Thanks for bringing this up.
