yeah, it was one step from being completely irrelevant.4e deemphasized con a fair amount at least at higher levels, as con didn’t scale with level (only set your starting hp)

Just don't have Con add HP per level.
Have CON add HD and only add HP when you spend HD.
These equate pretty closely.4e deemphasized con a fair amount at least at higher levels, as con didn’t scale with level (only set your starting hp)
It is not that easy, as casters use con for concentration saves. What save would you change that to, as STR saves seem inappropriate. Just a caster stat check? Or while writing it, STR might be better than I initially thought, because you want melee casters to be better at concentration than ranged ones...yeah, in the course of 5E, I have seen a hundred of PCs, 90+% had CON 14.
just delete the stat and give everyone +2 HP per level in addition to class, add all Con saves to STR and game would not feel any different.
concentration is Con save so it goes to STR, it might finally solve the STR-DEX debate.It is not that easy, as casters use con for concentration saves.

Might be worth a try.
Probably. Would make STR a very useful stat for casters.concentration is Con save so it goes to STR, it might finally solve the STR-DEX debate.
Bloodmagic, spiritmagic, Shadowmagic, and soulmagic are often health based.Why should it be a casting stat?
The plan is that Constitution would grant less HP. A big chuck at level 1 but nothing afterSo certain casters can double down on spell attack/DC and HPs with same ASI? Add bonus unarmored AC to them while you are at it
No.And you are right, it's legacy reasons, reasons that CON is not deleted from the game completely
