I want to play a druid that can go into Wild Shape, so I'm building him on D&D Beyond.
The Wild Shape feature says that at 4th level, I can Wild Shape into a CR 1/2 beast, and at 8th level I can Wild Shape into a CR 1 beast.
However, the article "Druid 101: Wild Shape Guide" by James Haeck says that at 2nd level, I can Wild Shape into a CR 1 beast, and by 6th level, I can Wild Shape into a beast with a CR of my druid level divided by 3 (rounded down), so a CR 2 beast at 6th level.
Which one is right?
Or does the Circle of the Moon druid's Circle Forms feature (PHB, p. 69) negate the Wild Shape feature?
