I am currently playing a level 15th Circle of the Shepherd Druid, and I have been looking at the interaction between these spells and I don't see a reason for it not to work. What do you guys think?
The plan is to cast Shapechange (turning into an elemental, fiend or celestial) when I am level 17 and then have the Cleric of the party cast planar binding on me. Shapechange replaces all your statistics, apart from class and racial features - along with mental ability scores, meaning that your creature type changes too. To me, this means that I could be Planar Binded by the Cleric. For the duration, Planar Binding says that if the creature was created by another spell then the duration matches that of Planar Binding. So to me, this combo works - in that Shapechange's duration could be increased to 1 year and a day and not be concentration. The only crux is that I would be Planar Binded to the Cleric and have to follow their commands - however, I was planning on casting Planar Binding on myself and then dispelling the Cleric's Planar Binding.
