1)what level does a druid obtain shape-shifting skills?
2)what level does a paladin obtain turn undead?
3)Is the increased difficulty of the expansion restricted to new areas or is the entire game more difficult? I'm playing HoW from the beginning (new party) and I can't believe how much I am having to resurrect characters.

Thanks,

1. Not exactly sure but i believe it's every 3 levels a new one.

2. Level 3. A paladin has his turn undead ability always at 2 levels lower then his actual level. This does not mean that therefor he can automatically turn all undead. It depends on the level of the undead themselves.

3. The entire game is more dificult

3. monsters do double damage and in some areas there are more/harder monsters

example: in Dragon's Eye you'll meet yuan-ti mages (who casts stoneskin and protection from normal missiles offscreen. )
