Maybe because a str rogue can equip str based weapons that tend to do more dmg than fineness? I don't know if that is totally true, but at first glance there are more options with str based weapons with say, the sickles doing 2d4 vs a 1d8 rapier (minimum you will ever do is now 2), or no dex based 2-handers that I saw. This is an incomplete picture because of +1/2/3 and so on weapons and dual wielding or what have you, but I guess that is what they are getting at?
As far as colossus not stacking with hunter mark, I didn't know that. Should it stack and that is a bug, or is that a reason to pick, say entangling strike instead so that they don't interfere with each other's effects and provides different builds? Reliable extra 1d6 vs concentration based 1d6 effect.
Just tested it in game, Initial attack applies hunters mark as expected, and then a separate attack hits for colossus right afterwards. I think this is working as intended? Unless you mean to say Colossus should also get an additional 1d6 from hunters mark as well as the initial attack. I am on the side that thinks a proc should not trigger additional procs of previous effects, otherwise you could create a loop of instakill and that is unbalanced.
