If you make it like the original game was:
Doesn't affect paladin/SK/Ranger much. Most their spells cast fast and they cast a lot of low level spells (ie, using level 9 flash of light at 60). SK feigning off large packs gets harder, one of the reasons monks were favored for raid zone pulling in-era.
Druid and cleric are hardly affected since they usually solo out of melee range anyhow. Fast-cast roots gain their value back compared to their near-worthless state on P1999.
Shaman gets a bit harder, but Shamans could already solo West Wastes dragons in-era so if they can't after change, that's a pretty good litmus test that it's overdone. Dungeon solo via means like willingly pulling 4- packs and casually rooting them all one by one gets a lot tougher.
Enchanters are generally more hesitant to haste and arm their pets due to the increased number of hits it creates.
Necromancers laugh at everyone and continue doing what they do.
That's from a high level perspective. At low levels, like teens, pretty much nobody wanted to cast spells while being attacked unless they could time it between mob swings (like flash of light, which casts fast).
