[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 7742192, member: 6779196"] Kurviak is correct. It has not yet been explicitly stated that one +2 must be in a physical attribute and one must be in a mental, but that has been the case with all three Ancestries they have revealed so far, including Goblin, and it fits the pattern generally followed by PF1.
