[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7502004, member: 6919838"] you seem to be conflating and linking as possible synonyms several things - "[COLOR=#333333]completely unneeded and unwarranted[/COLOR]" - "[COLOR=#333333]not going to break the game" and "[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]you can discard it without problems or concerns" [/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]Also you seem to not acknowledge the difference between a temporary "[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]Just for Season 9" change vs a now and forever did it ever need to be scope of a change. A sorcerer uses CHA as their main spell stat thats the rule. They do not use WISdom. thats the rule. would the game break if sorcs instead were based off wisdom - nope. Does that mean the rule should be dropped because its unneeeded and allow wisdom sorcs - nope. There are many reasons behind rules other than "it will break the game" and there are more levels a degrees of impact than "break the game" and "[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]"[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]you can discard it without problems or concerns""... A temporary change for a limited time in a limited circumstance can be far more manageable and not problematic than the same change being made widespread. just as an example - they could declare that "for season X - Deep Rising there will be commonly available access to cheap magic items (expendable and perishable) that allow water breathing" because they will be introducing for season-x Deep Rising a major underwater merfolk series of adventures and want folks to be able to move into the play with fewer complications. By limiting it to specific times and situations - they prevent that from say breaking a lot of other scenarios and such. So, i find your conclusions to not follow from the facts presented due to your (it seems to me) errant links of extremes of semi-related but not directly related elements.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
