Bear form givin to a hero

I gave a hero bear fomr and most of it works fine. He can tunr into and come back from it no problem, he keeps the aura skill he has and can spend skill points in bear form, Pretty much the only problem there is is when he is in bear form he cant gain EXP (beacause the bear form is a normal unit not a hero). So how can i make it so he gains the exp still OR how can i make it so the hero turns into a hero druid in bear form?

Also how can i change the projectile art to that of marine or hydralisk projectile art?

Hope you can help.

I know that to change the projectile art you just have to change one field in the unit editor. Go to the unit you want to change, and in the Projectile Art field just copy and paste in the path from the unit you want it to look like. For example to make your unit's projectile look like a marine you would put Abilities\Weapons\Rifle\RifleImpact.mdl in that field. A hydralisk would be Abilities\Weapons\HydraliskImpact\HydraliskImpact.mdl

Hope that helps.

Well, ud have to replace the Druid of the Claw (Bear Form) with an entirely new unit, based off a hero, then change the requirements to etoa and the required anims to alternateex - i don't know if this will work(since itll be a custom unit, and ull have to delete the original druid of the claw - i dont know if it goes by names, the requirements, or whatever, but this is just a suggestion) but its all I can think of.

Well...projectile art is screwy with riflemen and hydralisks from what I can tell(as no one responded to my post). They dont make sounds but can you still get them to do damage right? I think its becuz they are just rails and dont actually have a projectile(see how other people use the mortar projectile in their matrix movies) and has to be configured in the unit with the sound and all.
