Jeeea! Well, I am really not into optimisation on that level. I just want to sneak attack with Path of the Beast. Could it be viable then to attack with one claw as an action and with a rapier/ short sword as a bonus action, since you mentioned: "The Attacks using the claws from Form of the Beast make no requirement of using different hands for each attack, and so you can do all your claw Attacks in the Attack Action with the same hand if you wish"?
