Nov 20, 2015 at 5:50 comment added Pitzy @daze413 : Your scenario wouldn't work, but that's not the scenario in my mind. The spell is for a Giant Spider, but catching an 18HD Druid in Giant Spider form shouldn't be as easy as catching a 4HD Giant Spider with Imprisonment.
Nov 20, 2015 at 5:42 comment added daze413 If your target is a Wild-shaped Giant Spider, and the material component is in the form of the Druid, would Imprisonment even work?
Nov 20, 2015 at 5:20 comment added Pitzy We can assume that, and we can also assume that they might have just overlooked the terminology because the Multiclassing section is focused specifically on Classes. Spells and magical effects add several layers of complexity that they might have underestimated in the wording of these polymorph effects.
Nov 20, 2015 at 5:16 comment added nitsua60 I'd assume in that case they'd use the term "die type" like they do in the Multiclassing section.

Nov 20, 2015 at 4:56 comment added Pitzy @nitsua60 : Because "assuming the Hit Dice" can be interpreted to mean the type of Hit Dice - it does not necessarily mean you take the number of HD. If the Moon Druid 5 takes the Brown Bear form, her 5d8 just becomes a 5d10. It's a valid interpretation of that single sentence.
Nov 20, 2015 at 1:54 comment added nitsua60 Where do you see anything to suggest HD spend in wild shape count against HD available after reversion? Or that the number in humanoid form somehow caps the HD you have in Wild Shape contrary to the explicit provision "you assume the beast's hit points and Hit Dice"?
Nov 19, 2015 at 16:27 comment added KorvinStarmast @Pitzy I inserted the link to the highly related question Miniman linked to in his comment, since comments can disappear and most often do. If I did not link to the correct answer, please insert the correct link.

Nov 19, 2015 at 12:53 comment added daze413 I didn't even realize that part about spending hit dice in wild shape might be limited to how much your character can spend. Hm, this raises more questions than answers but it still helps a lot for the current question. +1
