#22202, "Was the alligator intended to be this strong?"

Here a couple snippets from Gulkra logs:
<702hp 462m 728mv 20861tnl (-19.21%)> cb How goin' Drillmistress? Gulkra: How goin' Drillmistress?
<740hp 462m 799mv 20861tnl (-19.21%)> Inger: Had bit of headache. Better now You yell 'Help! I am being attacked by a massive alligator!' A massive alligator's bite >>> ANNIHILATES <<< you! That really did HURT! A massive alligator's bite === OBLITERATES === you! That really did HURT! A massive alligator's bite === OBLITERATES === you! You sure are BLEEDING! A massive alligator's bite *** DEVASTATES *** you! You have been KILLED!!
Another one. <812hp 345m 823mv 20861tnl (-19.21%)> You yell 'Help! I am being attacked by a massive alligator!' A massive alligator's bite MANGLES you! A massive alligator's bite MANGLES you! A massive alligator's bite bounces harmlessly off of your stony hide. A massive alligator's bite MANGLES you! A massive alligator's bite MANGLES you! A massive alligator's bite MANGLES you! Your crushing force mauls a massive alligator. A massive alligator has some small but disgusting cuts.
I assume that is that is through resist and stoneskin. And look at the damage it takes. Mauls? Whoever coded this thinking it was balanced is on crack.

and I mean easily bested an a/b/s alligator. Gulkra was just a bad match-up for said form. Like lions were for my thief.

and not the new one, which apparently is pretty bad (I haven't played a neo shifter, couldn't tell you).

It has no generalized damage reduction, but it does resist a couple types (and is vulnerable to a third).
So situationally that could make it seem like it has better DR.

Why not simply add a basic sort of helpfile template for damage reduxes/vulns for shifters.
Sort of Generally, reptilian shapes are resistant to heat and slash But take alot of damage from cold.
Nothing really specific, just a little shove in the right direction of thinking when dealing with shapeforms. I have known for a while certain forms have certain vulns etc etc, just not common knowledge at ALL.
