09-29-06, 11:19 AM I was thinking of letting my druid player have a crafter add Wild*to some of his items.

Do you think this is a bad or good idea?

I also wanted to know if putting Wild* wondrous items in treasure from monsters would be a good idea.

Thank you for reading.

Wild: The wearer of a suit of armor or a shield with this ability preserves his armor bonus (and any enhancement bonus) while in a wild shape. Armor and shields with this ability usually appear to be made covered in leaf patterns. While the wearer is in a wild shape, the armor cannot be seen.
Moderate transmutation; CL 9th; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, baleful polymorph; Price +3 bonus.

Has anyone tried adding wild to items as a DM before?

However, for the most part, it doesn't seem to cause too much problems *most* of the time. However, just make sure it isn't too common (it IS a +3 equvilant enhancement after all).
