Wild Shape after bestiary 1

[Rob_dogg]

From best I can tell wild shape does not really accommodate any form beyond bestiary 1. you have the option to turn into a plant, animal, elemental form in bestiary 2,3,4 but most have listed abilities not covered by any polymorph spells… opinions? advise?

You just don't get those abilities. The Beast Shape spells (and by extension, Wild Shape) only give specifically what they say they do, IF the thing you are polymorphing into has them.

Didn't we have this discussion? Oh yeah, here. Even linked to a handy guide here. Is there something else you needed?

As I said last time, Elemental Body could probably use an update (or a more general format) but everything else seems well written to allow for future growth. Plant Shape III even included an ability that was worthless until Bestiary 2 (regeneration).
