Druids, Wildshape, and armor


Rules Questions


I guess the only real question here is what happens if you try to don barding after wildshaping? Can you put armor on? or does it automatically just meld into you still?

I don't see any reason you couldn't. Items only merge into your body at activation.

Your wild shaped druid can wear barding as a normal animal. You will almost certainly need someone else to put the barding on you, and you may have problems if you try to turn back into a humanoid while wearing barding (I'm not 100% sure whether RAW allows you to meld armour into an alternate form when you regain your natural form, but my group plays that you can't).

It should also be noted that this barding will not stack with the benefits of Wild Armour.


yeah this is mostly because I want to be a spiked armor wearing dire bear :P

I'm not sure if stone plate is PFS approved.

This happens.

That's awesome.

From the list of PFS legal materials:

Quote:

Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Inner Sea World Guide

... Equipment: all weapons, armor, and adventuring gear on pages 290–293 with the following restriction: only gunslingers may purchase firearms except cannons, which are not available to anyone;

So I'm pretty sure you're good to go.
