Shifter Shapes and Weapons

[Drow Arrow]

So i was wondering if it was possible to make weapons merge with unarmed shapes? because without it I'm losing 20AB unless I use a shape that wields a weapon, however I know there's limits to what can be done but figured I'd ask none the less.

also something i just thought of related to this suggestion.

if the weapon thing isn't possible, can we get AB from gloves to work some how with the shifted shapes as right now the only thing from gloves that seems to work is the resistances. once again i'm aware this might not be possible but it could be the answer to AB issues for unarmed shapes if doable
