Druid forms and abilities

[Ebonstar]

Ive read both the wiki alot and seen the two other druid threads and along with my suggestion, I also have access to a hak to solve the old merging issue, add forms and a tree walking ability gained when epic as well.

An old server hak had alternate improved forms such as Cheetah, Black Housecat, Treant, and a couple others. When shifted anything you wore and wielded would also merge and become part of the shifted form. It also dealt with the skill stat issue when merging.

For Example, my character would wield a lightning essenced staff that when shifted became lightning charged claws and fangs in Cheetah form.

They also gained Treewalking, which was a self teleport to a predetermined safe spot. This didnt have to be like a portal destination, because they didnt use such, but a non combat area sort of like the emergency spells when killed you read about in the novels. It was a side ability on the gained tree branch to spot your teleport spot. This would fit in with druid lore and teleport with plants.

These safe spots could be on any of the three servers used by that server, and could be done across our five as well in wilderness ie a forested area with trees.

Thanks for reading!

For the record, I have a recursive depth first searching function from a years ago that does treestride dynamically.
