Pax Prime seminar 2012 juicy news!

Let me be more clear. Player wants the ability to manifest the strength, scales and other things provided by Dragon heritage, but does not want the armor, weapons, or +1 bonus. They simply want the standard sorcerer's armor, weapons, and attack bonus.

That helps, I wasn't understanding you fully. By the same regard, I could say I want the Fighter's attack bonus and armor proficiencies, but not combat superiority dice. I would either have to wait for a class or variant that provided what I wanted or swap out class features for something more suited to my tastes. Hopefully I'd be able to do that with good guidance from the designers. But I see the base Fighter in no different a position than the Draconic Heritage Sorcerer in regards to the issue you have with it.
