Problem:

Able to use items while in Shadow Form state.

Btw, can they attack while in that state?

iRO Wiki:

[color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]Cannot use any skills or items while you are in Shadow Form[/size][/font][/color][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3].[/size][/font][/color]

Confirm too, but I think about this think :

Does Autocasted skill can be considered like a "used skill" ?

About autocasted skill, looks like it's answered in this link:

[b] Notes[/b]
[list]
[*]Can be used on Players while they are in a [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Manhole"]Manhole[/url]
[*]Cannot use any skills or items while you are in Shadow Form.
[*]Shadow form is canceled if the range between player and target is greater than 10 cells.
[*]Cannot be dispelled, therefore can only removal methods are: target move out of range, insufficient SP upkeep, exceed the hit count and/or duration ends.
[*]If you receive damage, and pass it onto another character that has [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Shield_Reflect"]Shield Reflect[/url] or reflect gear, if you are in melee range of them, some damage will be reflected back to you.
[*]If you are using Shadow Form on someone that has [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Defending_Aura"]Defending Aura[/url], any ranged damage used on you WILL be reduced by defending aura. Thus, the shadow formed target will receive less damage.
[list]
[*]You can always divest their Shield first or [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Masquerade-Weakness"]Masquerade-Weakness[/url], to avoid this situation.
[/list][*]If you are Shadow Forming a player who is protected by [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Sacrifice"]Sacrifice[/url], it will bypass Sacrifice and hit them, instead of the[url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Crusader"]Crusader[/url]/[url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Paladin"]Paladin[/url]/[url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Royal_Guard"]Royal Guard[/url].
[list]
[*]However, they will still receive the benefits of [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Defending_Aura"]Defending Aura[/url] / [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Shield_Reflect"]Shield Reflect[/url] and the damage you deal will be reflected to you.
[/list][*]If you have a status ailment, ie, [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Burning"]Burning[/url], it will bypass your Shadow Form and continue to hit you.
[*]You can be immobilized by skills like [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Warg_Bite"]Warg Bite[/url] while in Shadow Form.
[list]
[*]Avoid such scenarios as you cannot move, use skills, or items until Shadow Form ends.

- Damage is a form of redirect very similar to how [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Devotion"]Devotion[/url] (Crusader) works. Thus it is not possible to divert Divine damage like[url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Pressure"]Pressure[/url] and [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Gravitational_Field"]Gravitational Field[/url].[/size][/font][/color][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]
- It is possible to Shadow Form players trapped in [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/Manhole"]Manhole[/url] and similarly [url="http://irowiki.org/wiki/White_Imprison"]White Imprison[/url] (Warlock) to receive diverted damage.[/size][/font][/color][color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=3]
- If Player [b]A[/b] Shadow Forms Player [b]B[/b] and vice versa, the damage will only get redirected once. Hence if Player [b]A[/b] gets damaged, damage is transferred to Player [b]B[/b].[/size][/font][/color]

Confirmed on bRO.
I questioned 3 SC, the answers were:
You can't attack.
You can't use skills, probably, autocasted as iRO says will work.
You can't use items while in Shadow Formation.
