If you can for saves yes. I don't think that it'll help AC though when shifted if I remember correctly. Strength for some dmg too Forgot about belt. You can use the ability of the reward belt and then swap it to another belt if you don't need the strength. I Dint think you had to wear the reward belt at all? just keep it in your inventory? no need to even swop it out? when I tried using it on my risen it says cannot use both?

Well yeah actually it doesn't need to be worn, but my preference is to use thlhe belts ability and swap it out, as if I lose the bonus from either unshiftung or dying I can then just use the widget. But that doesn't happen too often.

DR Route personally , as you'll lose a tonne of AC when flatfooted which happens often. So more defense in your DR.

I'm playing this build and I'm loving it so far (lvl 23). However, I have a question regarding the skills to take.
I'm taking: animal empathy, discipline, open lock (1 point), parry, spellcraft and tumble. All maxed unless otherwise stated.
Buy I still have enough points left to max another skill and get around 20 points on another. Any recommendations?
I first thought max listen, even though while in elemental form you're immune to sneak attack, I might run out of elemental form uses and need to get back to safety using boar shape or whatever. I was also thinking of getting some persuasion or appraise but I'm really not sure. What would you guys suggest?
Thank you!

on my most recent Air Elly i started with 12 dex and maxed Parry, so with +6 dex gear and +50 parry gear I can get 50% undispellable conceal. Also dumped point in lore as i like to be able to id the junk i find

What about persuasion? Is it any useful in the epic areas? I was told persuasion is useless so I ended up going for max lore and the leftover points I put in appraise.

Hi all
after taking advice from the forums and chatting to people in game, this is the first draft of an Air ele I am planning to make.
Can someone tell me if I have the correct feats? also I hate the layout of the export, so if someone else has a better exporter can they let me know? thanks in advance, rip this to shreds
Skills are not set, I suppose I should take listen and only threw points in AE while using the builder, probably won't bother with that

I have already started this build. Called him Astra, you might see him getting killed around fer and the likes haha.
I added in a few feats there some of which I have taken (maybe not specifically on those levels) If I was to go back I probably would have took more druid earlier for ease of levelling with Spells and buffs.
After reading time and again the puissant guide and some posts from apecraze I saw this build can be further improved if you switch the feats spent on morningstar for kama. You are not going to be wielding a kama when unshifted so the puissant will give you unfocused puissant bonus. However, once you shift into air elemental you will be wielding a kama with the unfocused puissant bonus transferred but with all the weapon focus, specialization, and such feats that will now boost your ab and damage since you are currently wielding a kama. That's quite a nice bonus to have.

On 3t there were changes made to the air ele so that it is actually unarmed.
That's why I have unarmed feats. The morningstar feats were taken as a precaution, in case I found a melee weapon that I wanted to use and not mess up the puissant. That is unlikely to happen with a morningstar, but you can choose any other weapon really, unarmed is the important one

On 3t there were changes made to the air ele so that it is actually unarmed. That's so confusing. So even if on my inventory it shows a kama as equipped when shifting into air elemental, it was changed to unarmed? How can I learn about all those unlisted (at least to my knowledge) changes? Are they explained somewhere? Thank you for sharing this

GG, I am assuming you can find those changes on the wiki, but yes pole is correct, kama's are banned on 3T so even though you can see a kama it is actually unarmed, but this counts only for kama weps if I am correct. You do still need to take the imp crit feat for the kama btw.
As for the kama confusion, for instance the stone golem shape has a greatsword and it works like you think it would.
