Suggested Change for Nomad Barbarian Rage

[thegn]

Nomad barbarian as a perk is centered around the idea of having rage bonus apply only to Dex and Con, and not strength, lending to dexterity focused builds. Unfortunately they still get a -2 ac penalty which means often that the +4 dex they innately get only offsets the AC loss by an exact break even, which isn't really exciting for any kind of dex build since the only real thing dex builds have going for them is getting tons of AC.

Of course, the bonus dex can be put to use with weapon finesse, but as that's an additional feat that you need to take to get some real use out of your dexterity rage, it leaves it in a much poorer spot compared to the default rage which not only already gives you bonus AB without taking any feat by default, but also gives you bonus damage on top of that, something that Dex builds already struggle with.

Maybe instead it can either lose the AC penalty or gain something like +1 earth damage to weapon, because as it stands, this perk is rather underwhelming as the rage seems a lot weaker than the others.
