I don't particularly think that it would be more fair to have the New Era Panii more magically powerful than the Base Panii. Attracting Maeneds is all fine and good, but with the 2E Pan he's worth his heafty pricetag. To downgrade the base Panii and upgrade the New Era doesn't neccesarily fix the problem, but changes it to another.

I'm fairly certain the biggest gripes of Base Pan are the Satyrs and Minos. (Though of course switching the Holy levels of the Hierophant and Dryads was a great change in Arrlen's Mod) Not the Panii being overpowered.

I would like to see the New Era Panii have 2 Earth, even with the sacrifice of a Nature (Finishing up with 2E2N) rather than putting *ANY* Pan at 1E3N. Just for the sake of being able to use Earthpower and forge Boots.
