[QUOTE="Brazeku, post: 3559806, member: 48916"] What you say about sorcerors is true, but if you're talking about the use of skill ranks in the context of sorcerors, I think it's fair of me to claim that sorcerors are a weakish class and as such that will influence the power balance of a race which supports them (and more or less only them and bards) well. What I see here is not people restricting the use of sorcerors to one race, what I see is the race acting as an incentive to pick sorcerors at all. Besides, plenty of races have optimal and suboptimal choices. I mean, a half orc is a great melee fighter, especially a barbarian. The stats that are penalized mean hardly anything to him. yet those negatives badly damage his ability to go into certain other classes. In the case of a race which has a +2 bonus to charisma and no other penalties, he is not damaged in any way by this adjustment; he can class into anything, although sorceror will be at an advantage, should you choose to take it.
