I’m the sort of player who often will pump up a prime stat and level everything else out to at least 12, so I’m not a min/maxer, but I still get not wanting to play a gimped build. As much as I love aberrant builds, if the stat of the race don’t synchronize well with the class then the option is less appealing to me.
I’m super excited about Tasha’s cauldron, as it will give players the freedom to work around this and be able to play half-orc bards and gnome paladins without feeling like they are setting themselves up to underperform against the rest of their party.
