When a druid changes into a tool user animal, dose she have to drop the items she wants the tool user to wear and then have her new form pick them up, or can she, for example, keep a scimitar in her hands while she transforms. When a druid changes into an animal does she get the (ex) abilities that go with it. In the druid handbook (here online) the implication was that she does. For example, can a fleshraker as a wildshape still use its poison, or rake or jumping charge abilities? If one has assume supernatural ability, which would you say is better, the ability to take frozen forms, or the ability to turn into aberrations? And by how much? Thanks for your time, Pop
