[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1746556, member: 478"] For 4th edition, maybe not, if they will make things more equal, but for 3.5 edition it is for sure, since there is a huge discrepancy between the base classes this way, and such a discrepancy is a bad thing in a game, which is based on balance. There's really not much to prove there, if this discrepancy is taken for granted as you say (which is open for debate, of course). ;) The designers of the 3.5 core rules have gone to lengths to create a better balance between the classes as compared to the 3.0 rules, and they have at least succeeded to a degree, maybe not fully, but it certainly is much better now. There really is no need to create such a huge imbalance again. If you don't like the 3.5 rules that's one thing, but the XPH is meant for exactly these rules, not for 3.0, not for your houseruled 3.0/3.5 conglomerate and not for 4.0, so it has to be judged against the official 3.5 rules and only these.
