My guess would be these 3 changes..

Publish 65 Notes
Mysticism Revamp
  • Cleansing Winds
    • Changes
      • Cleansing Winds will now affect players in a small area around the target as well
      • Players or creatures may be the direct target of the Cleansing Winds spell, however, players in the area must be in the casters party in order to receive the beneficial effects of the spell.
      • Pets can be directly targeted, but will not receive the spell benefits as part of the area effect.
      • WARNING: This spell will flag the caster as a criminal if a criminal or murderer party member is close enough to the target to receive the benefits from the area of effect (be very careful of who you party with, especially in town)
      • This effect can hit up to 3 additional players beyond the primary target
      • The effectiveness of the spell is reduced by the number of targets affected
      • The total healing, cure chance, remove curse chance are based on the skill of the caster.
      • If a target is cured the healing they received will be reduced proportionately to the level of poison that was cured. If the cure fails, the target will not be healed.
  • Spell Plague
    • Changes
      • Spell Plague hits the target with an explosion of chaos energy.
      • The residual energy from the chaos explosion can continue to erupt when the target takes additional damage.
      • Each subsequent explosion does decreasing amounts of damage, until the residual energy has been dissipated in a maximum of 3 explosions or after a duration of 8 seconds. There is a minimum of 1 second between each residual explosion.
      • If a target is already affected with a spell plague, each additional spell plague will take effect after the previous one expires. (The initial chaos explosion takes effect immediately and can trigger the secondary explosions of spell plague)
  • Sleep/Mass Sleep
    • Changes
      • Sleep will no longer prevent targets from casting spells or attacking
      • Sleep will place the target in a state of stupor for a period determined by the caster’s skills and the target’s Resist Spells skill.
      • While in this state they will have their casting, casting recover, attack, and movement speed severely reduced.
      • If target receives damage during this period, the stupor effect will be broken
      • Immunity has been changed to the following scale, 3-12 second scaling by player Magic Resist skill. Player must have 30 or more resist to extent sleep immunity beyond 3 seconds.

Yes, no resist = owned by sleep. But, you guys could run the Bok template without hide, stealth, and ninjitsu. Put Parry, Resist, and whatever else on. It's a great template, even vs mages, hell, Soulweaver ran it and he doesn't PvP that much. *Not a knock against you, but just saying you did good on that temp and you didn't PvP as much*. I'd run a really good throw away UBWS warfork as well, for the disarm/bleed.

And yeah, Spell Plague is pretty gimptastic.

You know, I've always avoided that template because it usually involves hiding/stealth. Would be interesting to run it without hide/ninja/stealth like you said.

Any idea if you can remove sleep with an enchanted apple?
