So perhaps a Spellstorm Mage is can learn magics related to the weather, and specialize in attacking with lightning, thunder and cold.This would be similar to the class training feats, that don't (as far as we can tell) provide the features of another class but do open up it's powers. This would have the advantage that going without a path or destiny still leaves you with the classes normal high level abilities and doesn't reduce the characters overall power.Or, what I think is more likely, they can have a set of powers and also give a benefit such as the build options provide, but a little stronger. In this case, going without one effectively means shooting yourself in the foot. Of course, if getting one came at the cost of a feat that might just work out fine. Class training could also have some bonus or other benefits besides abilities, as far as we know.</blockquote>
