I know there are numerous threads on which forms are the best for various purposes, but right now I'm only interested in how you make them effective for combat?
Sure you can change into a War Troll, but trolls are usually large or larger meaning there's going to be a problem with weapon size, how do you get around that?
There are forms with multiple natural weapon attacks like dragons, hydras and what have you, but how about when you attack monsters with medium to high damage reduction, that's going to reduce your damage output by a lot, what do you do?
So in short, which are your favorite forms and how do you make them effective?
