My guess is: Dex also gives CA. Con is useful for everyone.(Specially barbs) Int, wis and Cha could make casters op?(And wis adds CA for monk)           -Rarity feels odd: Flame tongue being "rare"(with a pasive +2d6 fire damage-AKA +7 damage) Vicious weapon being "rare", deals +7 damage on a critical hit and Oathbow being "very rare" with a daily power that adds 3d6+advantage.              -As someone ever said if the amount and power of ranged weapons must be lower than melee? as there is almost no magic bows in the book, besided the "+1 +2 +3" stuff.
