I don't know that hybrids need much love, and I don't think wizards need any. I leveled two wizards on Blue for raid parking and thought they were fine. Hybrids...

I think SKs would be more balanced if they got a slightly (one tier) better pet and slightly better lifetaps (SKs currently have a 45hp max tap). But hybrids have plenty of utility already, they're better group contributors than wizards for sure.

LOL, of course they're fine if that's all you use them for. But leveling toons just to have them parked at specific raid mobs is not in the spirit of classic EQ, and would be discouraged on this server (forced rotations) except for all but the most hardcore players (FFA on earthquakes). The idea is to have people actually want to play their main class, rather than feel useless most of the time or only log a class on specifically to kill a raid mob.
Making Soulfire and Reaper Pal/SK only gives them a bit of a raid buff and allows them to play hero. Undead criticals just adds some flair. I agree they don't need a ton. Wizards definitely need something, though, whether Clarity or ToT/buffed Harvest. They literally offer
nothing outside of raid mob kills, which makes the class stand out as uniquely bad among the rest.
