Yea, I'm reversing my previous complaint and am going to agree. Making medium armor more Str dependent gives a subtle push for medium armor classes like Cleric, Ranger, and Barbarian towards Strength, which isn't a bad thing at all.
16 Str, 10 Dex Ranger goes Medium Armor, and has an AC of 15.
10 Str, 16 Dex Ranger goes Light Armor, and has an AC of 15.
13 Str, 14 Dex Ranger goes Medium Armor, and has an AC of 17.
16 Str, 6 Dex Ranger should go get heavy armor and not be a g****mn ranger!
I do wish High Str/High Dex builds had more synergy, but that's a bigger topic than this thread.
