In the first Player’s Handbook, as the book presents the concept of power sources. It’s a sidebar; I found it at page 54, but my book is the Brazilian version, so the number may be changed. After the sidebar presented the first three power sources – Martial, Arcane and Divine – it tells about 5 “future” power sources: Elemental, Ki, Psionic, Primal and Shadow.Up to PHB2 they were following that, so the Primal power was built around the expectation of this 8-sided view. It was when the Monk was shoehorned into Psionic that the plan was not followed.I still think they should have followed their initial plan.First: weather and terrain effects are not directly elemental. Both have similarities, but who casts it, how one casts, how it looks, etc. are different.Second: I know Druids have elemental powers in most past editions. That’s why I said “In my head”. This is one of the cases I disagree with classic D&D.</blockquote>
