Howdy everyone! As you can see from the title, I need help making a druid character for a home-game.
I am attempting to make this druid assume the role of a 'tank' via wild-shape, but I don't fully understand how the ability works.
In order to keep armor bonuses while in an animal form, I'd need the armor bonus 'Wild'. If I keep the armor bonuses, would this also mean I keep other aspects like armor check penalties? In either case could someone tell me where I could find this info? I've never played a druid and trying to expand my portfolio.
The character will be starting at level 7 (though due to time it might be level 8 before the character in question actually gets played) and I also have 23,500 gold to work with to buy equipment.
I don't necessarily need advice on stats (but more than happy to listen to suggestions), I have a good idea of what I want to do, and currently will be using the hobgoblin race though I might change to half-orc.
Thanks in advance for the help!
