Wildshapes and Animal Companions

[dragonfire9000]

Well, I'm officially thinking about maybe coming back for just a little while perhaps. Dangit.

But I wonder, what are the available druid wildshapes and animal companions? I know they have been changed per EfU:A setting changes, but I've no idea of the specifics. I'm sure some of it is FOIG material, but links or straight answers would be appreciated.

Edit: I know that the Shifter is a ridiculously difficult prestige class to attain, but I thought I would ask for more detail about that as well. I've read the official NWN description and thought about concepts, but is there any set method? Considering the nature of the PrC, I doubt it. Any further information would be helpful.

And I assume that, like my character, I will have to learn about those wildshapes' actual abilities IG.

Do more become available at higher levels in EfU:A?

Yes, at level 8 druid you get new forms to access. As for the abilities of those, they are fairly straight forward. Spider has a poison bite and some web. Rat good for sneaking, bat good for spotting. But yes, most is best learned in game just because it is easier that way.

Feel free to search for my PC in-game (adeline) who has had enough experience and frustration with wildshapes. I'd tell you everyhting i know here, but i'm afraid the people here at the froums will hurt me for that.

EDIT: I've realized i made a mistake, i've just fixed it.

Yes.  Hard earned wildshapes are best learned IG.
