From my roomate (a 34 shadowknight).

"The mana upgrade was nice, gives me enough mana to solo much more reliably
(though it is still a awful way to get xp). It also gives me the potential
to drop DOT's on several mobs in a big fight, keeping them taunted on me."

I agree that it would seem to help paladins the most (since the ability to
cast an extra gheal or two is pretty big (or stun for an extra 30 seconds),
but this was a meaningful upgrade to them, thus they could not have been
balanced both before and after. (I tend to fall on the side that high level
hybrids were underpowered and now are pretty comprable to mellees).

I was happy they upgraded hybrids, I'm pretty much happy when they upgrade
anyone, as if it doesnt increase my power, it increases my teamates. (No
PvP for me here). I just wonder why they cannot admit when things are wrong
or need to be changed.
