Hybrids were in a really good place at launch. But they just kept buffing warriors non-stop up through kunark and didn't do jack shit about the exp penalty.
Crits
rampage
crippling blows
50+ stat caps
improved combat tables
even more and better 1 handed weapon options relative to 2 hand
and of course the 500 pound cherry on top: disciplines
For raiding they indirectly nerfed paladins with the the manastone nerf as many raid forces would have classes like paladins( and druids/rangers) healing clerics and others while they stoned down their health.
For raiding/general play FD nerf directly fucked over SKs. But they could still be useful for pulling.
That said for most of vanilla/kunark virtually no one knew/used clickies for instant aggro on warriors to ameliorate their one main weakness.
