Fix: Animal Form too blatant

Opened this issue · 1 comments

The Elementalist's Animal Form feature is too blatant: before everyone's eyes the character transforms into an animal.

Possible alternatives:

  1. The Elementalist merely shifts certain body parts.
    1. Under-powered: loses temporary-hit-points-like property of this feature.
  2. Elementalist takes control of an animal which appears Nearby.
    1. Requires Elementalist to zone out as he concentrates.
    2. Elementalist vulnerable.
  3. Animal companion.
    1. Loses interesting aspects of Elementalist.

Balance of Animal Form feature not based on the druid's wild shape, but on the Dark One’s Blessing patron feature from the Fiend.

Maybe be under-powered as it also reduces damage.
