They actually do get item bonuses. The best bonus to each skill is merged.Nathe wrote: ↑Wed Oct 19, 2022 5:03 am It might be just me, but I was checking about the wild shape forms and the fact that they do not get the skill bonus from items feels a bit too much. In the end we can see non shape characters with like 1d20 + 80 open lock while our shifter cannot open anything over 40 regardless of item + skill investment.
TBH, this is more accurate to how it should be, and tallying all the item bonuses would be a good bit of extra effort, so I wouldn't expect to see it changed.
