While reading this thread This Thread about repeating the mistakes of 2e, I wonder if anyone can provide an actual example of Power creep in the game. Mainly focusing on the complete book and the Races of X books. (but any clear examples will do) I am one who feels all the talk about "Power creep" is just people being negative.
(Oh and I do feel that Options are powerful, so that is not a good argument)
Edit: The way I define power creep and how I mean it for this thread:
1) Is there a class that has come out that has been more powerful than a) one in the 3.5 Phb, b) a multiclass combo using classes and or PrCs the 3.5 PhB and DmG?
2) Is there a race that has come out that has been more powerful than one in the 3.5 Phb? (taking ECL into account)
3) Is there a PrC that has come out that has been more powerful than a) a straight class in the 3.5 Phb, or b) a multiclass combo using classes and or PrCs the 3.5 PhB and DmG?
4) Is there a feat that has come out that makes a character more powerful than the best build of the most powerful class/multiclass using the core 3.5 books?
5) Is there a spell that has come out that makes a character more powerful than the best build of the most powerful class/multiclass using the core 3.5 books?
6) Is there a Magic item that has come out that makes a character more powerful than the best build of the most powerful class/multiclass using the core 3.5 books?
7) Is there a combonation of any of the above that makes a character more powerful than the best build of the most powerful class/multiclass using the core 3.5 books?
