So I finally looked through all of Arcane Power, and got to sorcerers.
I love the two new concepts for sorcerer spellpower. Fury of the storm and the passage of time, space, and the universe. Very cool.
Then, IMHO, they REVERSED the secondary scores needed for these classes!
Storm sorcerers should have been Str: D&D has typically associated the raw power of the the storm with strength (Kord is god of Str. and Storm. Storm giants. Etc). It also would have been a good mix for genasi (who are a str/int race) but neither attribute good for a genasi (storm/chaos) is str based. Grrr...
Onto similar terms; why is Cosmic Str based? I see cosmic as similar to astrology/astronomy with a bit of Zoroastrianism tossed in; a power source for scholars and scribes of yore. I don't often think of them as strong, muscular types, but delicate and careful, if not a little dextrous.
In short: storm should have been Str, Cosmic should have been Dex (actually Int, but I digress).
Anyone see the rationale for Storm/Dex and Cosmic/Str?
