wotc
If Shapeshifters you control do become copies of the creature, they'll use the copiable values of the creature as it last existed on the battlefield. They don't copy whether that creature was tapped or untapped, whether it had any counters on it, whether it had any Auras and/or Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on.
wotc
If the target creature is an illegal target as Absorb Identity tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. Shapeshifters you control won't become copies of the creature.
