Sorry for not giving the whole context, I thoughts it was unnecessary because this thread covered it already.
The bug is not about items working during the wild shape. It is about items and their unique properties not working after dismissing a wild shape. I am talking about the items that provide bonuses seen on the 'character features' sheet. The only items that retain their properties as of now are Haste Helm and Spurred Band. The other ones need to be manually re equipped every time you dismiss a shape or else the game needs to be saved and reloaded.
