    I've done some googling but all I find is druids for p&p or somethings about what you want end game. I never play to where I hit the high levels so telling me end game equipment is useless. But that's not what I'm looking for anyway. Lol
    What I'd like to know is what do you get bonuses from when you shapeshift? Armor, rings, weapons, shields, charms, etc.

    You can also just make the 'Beast' runeword and make a werebear without having to be a druid, it gives +3 to Werebear and +3 to Lycanthropy while equipped, though you want to slot up on +skills to get the skills to decent levels.
    '
    Also, to answer your question :
    All other gear effects your character as usual, though you will obviously want to focus on stats that help you in melee - a shapeshifter build is usually pretty tanky and heavy hitting.

    Can't get to the Beast rune word. I don't usually go that high level. I usually make a new character after nightmare if that long. Sometimes I restart after the first run through. The rune word does look pretty appetizing though. I might just run up to it. Thanks for the thought though. It is appreciated :cool:
    Also thanks for the other info as well. I thought that's how it worked but wanted to be sure. No purpose equipping anything in specific if it's not going to matter. Lol. So I can use whatever I choose and work with it in werewolf/werebear form. Nice! Thanks :banana:
