Beast form


Rules Questions


Where exactly does it say in the book what attacks you get by shape shifting. Say you turn into a tiger. Do you get all of the forms? The spell doesn't actually say you get any of the attacks. just that you gain the new travel speeds, and scent/eyes of the beast. Does it say it in the beastiary somewhere?

Thank you for your time.


chapter 9 of the core rule book transmutation section has the basic rules for all polymorph spells

In the polymorph subschool, Magic chapter. You gain the natural attacks for your new form (the damage dice listed for the creature, plus your own possibly-adjusted Strength modifier). While polymorphed, you are proficient with these attacks.


Awesome, Thank you, I just kept reading the druid section and the spell, and neither one of those mentions actually gaining the attacks. So I thought it was another one of those assumed, but not directly mentioned things.
