Hello all,
I would really like to see the autotransform gone. That is more negative effect than something helpful. And probably they should be allowed to join Warrior's guild?
What do you think?

POLL : Werebeasts
I wouldn't mind giving werebeasts access to the warrior class. I have no idea what autotransform does or how it works.
I really feel that autotransform is one of their balancing factors. Werebeasts have one of the highest avg damages possible (only beaten by DK malforms, and qraces) and they get some sick bonuses to their attack skills when transformed. While autotransform is annoying, you can just revert. Not saying taking it out would be OP, just saying I think it is there as a balancing factor. Also after having played a few beasts, I don't even know when you would fight when you where not transformed. I never found a scenario where being a human was better than being a beast as a ranger, or druid. As a zerk you stay human to get your path bonuses for fury, shield block, and arrow immunity. Not so much that it was better outright, it just let you take advantage of all your class skills. Transformed cleave is also terrible, so there is that.
The autotransform is fine.
I'm fine with giving them warrior. The only problem I see with this is they're going to miss out on a lot of the lores. If you're transformed you can't use back cutter or whip lock or focused bash, etc. In that regard, they're going to have the same issues berserkers have.

finally a warrior I wont feel bad going polearm/axe lore on lol
Please warrior. The missing out on lores while transformed is fair.
You miss out on every lore dont you?
The other problem would be that beast will not be affected by 4th attack, or it must be adjusted in the code.

That might be deadly!
Riposte doesn't work when transformed, tried it last Halloween.
I've always liked auto-transform. Defenses seem to go up immensely while transformed, but the only real drawbacks is output depending on beast form and whether or not it's convenient at that given time. It has almost always happened to me while I am in the midst of getting my ass handed to me and then I'm now surviving a lot more readily because I did transform. The only time that I've ever been very annoyed with it was testing a Berserker, but that's only because I also auto-raged and it locked me into a mob death and wasn't directly caused by the auto-transform itself.
As for access to Warrior, I don't see why they couldn't be. There are reasons to not transform for sure, depending on your play style, but it doesn't mean that being a Warrior would mean losing out on your Warrior Lore either. I could see a viable option to transform at key times and switch back right where it counts the most depending on your tactics, but I don't think it's any worse off than any other Warrior combination out there either.
I mean lores not taking into effect while transformed is a fair trade-off, i.e. backcutter.
