When using wild shape to become a beast. Do you gain the beast different actions? Such as an octopus ink? Is this what it means in the description of wild shape rules as skills?
Yes, you gain the beast's actions, as per the sentence "Your game statistics are replaced by the statistics of the beast..." of the Wildshapre feature.
It goes even further that you count as a beast as well, so spells and effects that can target beasts but not humanoids will target you in your wild shape. Same goes for elementals if you wild shape into an elemental at later levels.
Basically you use the page in the monster manual as your character sheet, with the things mentioned in the class feature, such as alignment and proficiencies.
