Oct 12, 2010 18:30:03 I just updated my character builder and I looked at my level 7 Eladrin Swordmage. It took me to the abilities tab and gave me the option to add a racial bonus, +2 int, dex, or cha. Since he's an intelligent blademaster I, of course, want to boost my INT. However, the little drop down does not let me select intelligence, just Dexterity and Charisma.

For now I just manually bumped the int base score by two and now my character is houseruled, but I just thought I would check if anyone else is having this issue.

At least the bits and pieces that were published as errata to the PHB and other books.

Ah, that explains it. Thanks for the clarification!
