So I’m missing something somewhere and I’m not sure why.
With the change prefaced in today’s Essentials preview everyone is talking about how much Melee Training needed a hit from the Nerf-Bat. I’m not at all sure why this is, and I don’t recall hearing this before today. I honestly thought the opposite was true. I figured that Weapon or Melee based classes deserved a MBA based on their primary stat even without a feat.
Well, ENWorlders, why do you think that Melee Training was too strong?
Here’s the situation. Gren, a Battlemind, can swing his hammer all day long, accurately and painfully, as long as it's on his turn. Half a second later, a goblin walks away from him and Gren as forgotten which end he’s supposed to hit with. Why does that make sense to most people? Why was it necessary to make a weapon based character worse at swinging his weapon?
This is a genuine question. What is it that feels wrong about viable MBAs fro non-Strength classes? Especially when those classes are Melee or Weapon based?
