What they actually said was: *wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge* Twin StrikeBeing told that your power does slightly more or less damage is shrug-worthy compared to being told that your power does something completely different. We’re particularly interested in gleaning some feedback on this degree of change. Also, consider if your opinion is different depending on the popularity of the power in question, or how iconic it might be.
I agree, of course, but...Just to join the overwhelming chorus: Yes, PLEASE, make Dire Radiance use Con or Cha. If they're already changing so many powers, I don't see why they didn't make this one.
I see no reason why not to enable a dual primary starlock (and not make it a trap). Just give starlocks the option to use Con instead of Int for AC (or maybe just "the lower of their Con and Charisma bonuses") and let players choose between Con/Int, Cha/Int and Con/Cha. There's nothing trappish about taking a few attacks on a stat that's one point lower than your primary stat, while still having a decent AC and two good defenses.I think it's really by far the largest flaw left. I don't think Starlocks need an AC boost, because IMO they should all have Int secondary. Cha+Con "dual-primary" builds are almost always a trap and should be discouraged.
