Way to necro the thread =P

Small tangent now that this question shakes my memory, and I am not sure if this is listed anywhere inP99 patch history, but one reason erudite SKs were interesting is the high starting INT.

Once upon a time, before Velious, hybrid classes only had HALF the mana of full casters, and also had to wait their full weapons delay after a spell completed to swing the weapon, rather than the weapon delay continuing to "tick" while a spell was being cast.

Anyone know if P99 had these effects earlier in Blue timeline? Because currently, hybrids are using the post-patch formula where their mana matches that of full casters, and their spells use the same mana cost as full casters, and their swings complete while spells are being cast (resulting in a swing going off just as a spell does).

The above are not how the game was at launch.

Dunno about Green/P99, but there's definitely patch evidence for that:

Rangers, Paladins, and SKs now have mana equivalent to that of a pure caster with the same stats. This will give those hybrids a good deal more mana, regardless of their stats.
