i finally found it.. its the ease of use mod... actually it makes the shapeshifters stronger and more balanced (except for a spell). i got the readme on this... what the shapeshifter is suppose to have and what i currently have (b4 the mod was installed)

now the spells that i think are a little overpowering (like the cleric-druid spells)
Quote:
The "Rebalancing" gives a Greater Werewolf Shapeshifter the +7 HP per Level
due to a fighter with 25 CON (before you just got +2). Most importantly,
Shapeshifters may now cast spells while in Wolf form. Hey, they're supposed
to have dedicated their lives to controlling lycanthropy. I'm sure a little
fur won't mess up their communion with nature. Yuan Ti, Githyanki,
Sahuagin, they can all cast spells. Why not wolfmen?
In addition, the Druid spell choices were a bit weak in some areas, so some
Priest-only spells were made Priest-Druid: Sanctuary (sylvan sanctuaries
abound), Chant (they got Bless, why not Chant?), Zone of Sweet Air (sounds
nature-y to me!), Glyph of Warding (no excuse, but they need a damaging
spell here that isn't Call Lightning), Righteous Magic (listen to Jaheira
for a while and tell me she's not Righteous ... more importantly, if
they're going to tank around they need some extra help).
Finally, 99% of all sixth-level druid spell slots go to "Summon Fire
Elemental". You can get a 24 hit dice monster with +4 claws that lasts for
hours with that spell. It's so much better than the 7th level "Summon Earth
Elemental" that it isn't funny. The other 6th-level summons just don't come
close. To give you some actual choices, "Conjure Animals" has been changed
to summon two 20 HD Greater Bearweres (they're like Greater Wolfweres).
However, the duration remains 4 turns. Do you want Fire Elementals forever,
or Mighty Big Tanks for a short time? You decide.
