Pretty sure these limits should not be effecting paladins casting Armor of Faith on lowbies. Even though it is a lvl 53 spell for paladins, it is by no means a "lvl 50+ spell" and I don't ever remember my paladin being restricted from casting it on newbs on live.

I believe this is working as intended based off some research:

Chloroplast mentions being level restricted on rangers as late as 2004 (but not for druids/shaman).

Mention of hybrids being restricted in Kunark, but guessing dev team decided it was either a balance feature or too lazy to fix:

Post 50 Hybrid Spell Bug?
It's not a bug, but rather it is based upon the level that you get the spell in question. Since hybrids get the spells post-50, they are treated like level 50+ spells of other classes.

That said, I will talk to the tuning team to see if we can get it based on the lowest level that anyone gets the spell.

Moving to resolved.
