Hi all,

I'll need your great knowlegde and wisdom to help me with this problem.

If i take Shapeshift alternative class, I gain the shapeshift supernatural (SU) ability at will.

The Warshaper presrtige class have 5 different ways to fullfil the requirement.

1: Change shape supernatural anility (ex: hound archon)

2: Shapechanger subtype (ex: phasm)

3: Polymorph as a spell-like ability (ex: solar)

4: Able to cast the polymorph spell

5: Wild shape or similar calss feature (bear warrior)

Since it is specified that shapeshift is not wild shape anymore. I think that I will be able to take some levels of warshaper because the first criteria. "Change shape" and "shapeshift" is not the exact word but define the samething. I'm I wrong ? I friend of mine think so.

I need your help on that case.

Thanks,

Marc

Ultimately it would be a core rules issue dependant on whether or not shapeshift qualifies as a similar class feature for the Warshaper requirements...

Since the wording isn't exact, you can expect table variance on this.

However, I don't think any judge will disallow the combo.

5: Wild shape or similar class feature

I believe 'Shapeshift' falls under this category. It replaces the ability to take on the form of any legal animal within HD limit for a slicker ability to take on a small number of forms at will.

Are the alternate class rules from the PH II even legal ? I looked through the LGCS and didnt see where they were ?

Are the alternate class rules from the PH II even legal?They are NONC. Get campaign documentation to Open them for you and then they are "legal".

Then what does it mean ? Everybody in chorus, if its not in the LGCS you need campaign documentation opening for your PC (LGCS p26).

Gotta read up a bit :)
