druid questions??? Do Barbarian or Monk abilities work with druid in form.

[Stormslayer1]

Monk UA specials or Barb rage?


Do the UA specials stack with Rogue sneak attacks in Wolf form ?
For that innitial hit or two?

Could you go dex based using weapon finess feat?

Does rage work in form?

Would it be worth while to take 4 Barb levels to get uncanny dodge?

I'm also wondering if zen Archery feat would be worth while to get an Ok missle attack either with or with out a splash?

From what i've read, barbarian rage prevents a lot of the druid animal special attacks because they are classified as spells. So, in a kind of sideways way, you could say that druid abilities do not work on a barbarian in form (raged).

So basically you would be taking 4 levels and a feat to boost the dodge feat the 25% assuming it worked when in Druid form.

I wonder how this would compare to the evasion from just 2 levels of Monk or rogue?

Yeah for some odd reason the bears PHYSICAL attack like rend, maul hell even ROARING can't be done whilst raging...I can't wait for them to fix this bug so I can make my Raging Drunk (Druid9+/Barb2+/Monk1+) or just a plain Barbearian

Monk attacks that require being unarmed will work in animal form, even while wielding monk weapons. So if you have ninja spy 1, you can dual wield shortswords in animal form and use stunning fist and touch of death, which is an advantage non-animal monks don't share. Pretty cool.

Yeah because regardless of what your wielding you attack count as Unarmed and Bludgeoning (damage and crit profile don't matter either forms have that set)..having a Wis based Druid can make you great at both spellcasting AND your wolf special abilities AND Monk abilities...it makes a really strong case for a Dex/Wis based character since their finessable as well...if the OP has access to Half-Elf it adds alot to this build in the form of Rogue dilly especially if the plan is wolf form.

Personally until they fix the "no raging bear" bug a friend and myself are doing a "infiltration" duo with a Half-Elf Wolf Druid18/Monk2 (Dex/Wis Based) and a Halfling Rogue20 (Dex/Int Based) with the general idea of send in the Druid Dog and Hirelings than jump them from behind with a flurry of sneak attacks...thats assuming of course we can't just sneak past.
