Fortunately though, it also offers a very easy way out of this handicap with the ''Beastwalker Circle'' feat, giving you the PHB Druid's Wild Shape powers and permit them the ability to sacrifice one of those uses of Summon Nature's Ally for a normal Druid's Daily. What you don't get from this, however, is the Druid's additional At-Will, so you aren't shoehorned into using only ONE At-Will while people-shaped and only ONE At-Will as an animal (unless you're a [[human]], then go a head on your merry way).
