If I had to guess I'd say Verant is going to add a flag to certain mobs about whether or not manaburn affects them or to what degree. Right now a group of 4-5 wizards can solo a 32k dragon. Even less if they happen to crit on a manaburn. I wouldn't be surprised to see it have a limit of something like 2k on certain mobs in the near future. While probably being fairly balanced againt Luclin ubers or even ToV dragons, it's a bit overpowering against pre-Velious ubers.
