Title: Saves in forms
Post by: arion on November 02, 2005, 09:38:27 pm
Additional to poll.

I think such hard link between stats in forms and saves is not right...

You can be almost immune without form (in saves plan), but when you shapeshift, you lose all your advantages (in saves plan again).

Firstly I ask Immortal's opinion :)

Correct me if I'm wrong, and I could very well be...but I think, in form, you have the same saves as out of form, but with adjustments according to your new stats that pertain to those saves (dexterity, wisdom, constitution, aye?), which explains why will is usually hurt the most, when dropping from 20+ to 5, for example.  This would mean that, to have powerful saves in-form, you either need equal wisdom etc., or bonuses, so I'm not sure how either would work out. 

Added: Maybe allow stats to remain the same, or with a slight penalty?  If you're able to control your actions with the same concious thoughts while in another form, you should at least retain some of your mental stats, though perhaps not physical ones.
