Since everybody uses it, why not make it a standard score?

Mustrum_Ridcully said:I can see an eventual Barbarian/Berserker like class relying on Constitution. A Monk-like class might also want to rely on Con and Wis.
But if you think about it, this is definitely the way in 3rd edition, too. Every class needs its constitution score (hit points matter!), but few classes rely on it for its major effects. (Except a variant of the 3.0 Psion, IIRC).
Outside of the core rules, in Arcana Unearthed/Evolved, i think the Champion class had a few abilities relying on Constitution.
But it's still a rarity. I guess constitution as an ability is just too passive, and it doesn't fit too spellcasting, either.

About armor. I don't know, but I can totally see it. I wouldn't mind a few armor-clad rogues (it's not like they were not possibly in 3.x, either!)
