Interestingly the rat form isn't quite as hilariously bad as it sounds - while in rat form you're 90% resistant to all physical damage.

It's limited to 1d2 damage with no strength bonus (the rat also weirdly has 18/00 strength but can't get much use out of it because of this), but it can be used in a pinch to tank enemies that have high physical threat. Combined with Hardiness, Defensive Stance, Armour of Faith, off-hand Defender of Easthaven etc. you can actually become immune to physical damage.

...okay, it's probably not going to rock your world with how useful it is in every fight, but I thought it worth commenting on because you can actually get some limited use out of it.
