@@darcraven01I wondered too so I looked it up when you use shape change it changes your stats to whatever you turn into except your charisma wisdom intelligence so as a wizard you keep what are probably good stats for you and can turn into something strong in the other stats that’s your level or lower to give yourself amazing stats all around and gives you a lot of extra hp as you gain the hit dice of the creature and then excess damage goes onto you if the form takes too much damage while true polymorph allows you to turn yourself or someone/some object around you into something else wether it be an object or a creature any unwilling target gets to make a saving throw against this however so this will change your stats and to whatever you’ve been transformed into they are very similar but both have their uses it’s also worth noting that wizard is the only one with both and shape change is most likely for druids but wizards being wizards get it

@@andreacallegari7137 “provided your new form is physically capable of doing so”, so we saying this Marilith can take a tabaxi’s ability to super dash? It’s too vague. Casting spells is one thing but Maralith have specific spells they can cast so I would argue it’s physically incapable of casting spells it doesn’t inherently know. In terms of wizards you don’t carry over your spellbook nor have you got a level 20 body capable of casting high level magic.

@@stomyn is a level 1 wizard physically capable of casting high level magic? No, even if the spells are in his book he can’t cast the spells, because there is a physical requirement that you only achieve on level up.

@@TheGreatAmarant72 Mariliths don't have innate spellcasting: even if they did, you wouldn't be able to cast their innate spells once you shapechange You can choose what your equipment does (including your spellbook, which as a Wizard will always be on your person). You will never lose your spellbook once you transform The CR of a monster is not equal to the PC's level. CR= 2/3*level). The fact the Marilith is CR 16 does not have any effect on their ability to withstand the toll of being a level 17-20 Wizard Even if there were prerequisites based on physical scores to cast Wizard spells, which there aren't, the Marilith has a better STR, DEX and CON than the average Wizard Much more importantly, you don't become the creature; it's still very much you in another body. Your INT, WIS and CHA stay the same. Why would you forget your spells as a level 17 wizard? Why would you forget the phrases, the hand gestures and the material components?

Slight error, no spell casting for Shapechanged creatures. So, no GFB, silvery bards or shield. BUT! You do get the Marelith’s Parry (pseudo-shield) and Song of Defense (for all the spell slots you aren’t using)
@anonymouse26752 ай бұрын
Not quite. If you are referring to this: "You transform into an average example of that creature, one without any class levels or the Spellcasting trait." That only applies to gaining any Inherent spellcasting of the creature itself, but doesn't apply to your own. Don`t forget this part: "You retain the benefit of any features from your class, race, or other source and can use them, provided that your new form is physically capable of doing so." As spellcasting is a class feature, you would absolutely retain it, as well as your original races features such as the Shadar-Kai teleport as an example.

The 28 AC isn’t total so long as there is turns and u have spells lots u can add +5 to your AC again and again. If u picked shield to be one of your free cast spells at lvl 18 then u actually can get infinite AC by just bringing along additional creatures (like ants, cats, chickens whatever) to have turns.
