I was lookin through the chaotic monstosity that is the Monster Manual II and came across the Grimalkin. Though it does seem week, if you change its type from shapeshifter to the more accruate description on a Magical Beast with shapeshifter as a subtype, it becomes quite formidable. and doing so also means that it would have a 4 BAB meaning that it could take it's first level in Warshaper. Doing so means that by 4th level of Warshaper you've got something that can compete with a fighter, or even exel it.

Some things I was wondering about though, would be the ECL and the best medium vermin, animal or beast would be. Best feats and equiptment would also be nice to know (Mage Hand would be a necessety for low level manipulation of objects) and what class to level in (I was thinking DFA because it would give a ranged attack).

Please comment, I'd really like to know what other people would suggest.
