[QUOTE="ForeverSlayer, post: 5988426, member: 91812"] Let's discuss revision first and what it means. A synonym for revision is correction so if something was not right to start with and it received a revision then all it meant was that it was corrected. There might have been some classes that were just incorrect, such as the ranger, and were corrected in 3.5. Let's not forget that the fighter, for example, was changed into the "Weaponsmaster" after essentials came out. Also, some of the powers were "corrected" and replaced it's previous version. Same goes with the "Stealth" rules. The designers stated that 3.5 was "not" a new edition. You can't argue with the designers on whether or not it was a new edition. Remember the "Rules Compendium" from 4th edition? It was a "Revision" of the PHB because it contained all the corrections up to that point. Technically 3.5 was not a new edition, even without the designers saying so, neither was "Essentials" and what came afterwords but if we are going to base opinions on the amount that was "revised" then 4th edition would be considered the "new edition" before 3rd edition.
