Something else about Hybrid Casting is they are the only classes that can swing their weapon immediately after casting a spells.
Their swing timer cooldown is active when they are casting.

This is a bug on P99, any class get's immediate swing after casting. Instead of waiting for the full swing timer after the spell cast.
In my opinion this would dramatically affect the early levels for casters. If it was how it's supposed to be that is.

I brought this up before but no one seems to think it's that important, despite it being a major boon for hybrids during our era of eq.
(and nerf to other classes)

Anyone remember that bone necro melee playstyle people were doing on p99?
That wasn't a thing on live in classic because after the necro would cast it had to wait for the full swing timer to melee hit the mob.
On p99 they swing their weapon, cast a spell and immediately after the cast (if it's long enough) they swing their melee weapon.
