Casting time, Delay & Cooldown time
This is to clear up some muddy idea about casting time for perfect world game. Because in PW-MY, developer separate it into Chanting/ Delay, Casting and Cooldown time.
Delay Time
Delay time is the time between when you press the spell button till the status bar to fill on your screen. Usually occupied the longest period in casting spells. Magician equipment attributes to reduce casting time called -% Chanting time. Other class called -% Delay time. It can be shortened with cast -minus % equipment. Highest i have seen per equipment is Casting -6% on a glove.
Casting Time
Casting time is after the status bar filled and some animation it takes to reach the target. Players called it animation delay. Do not be confused with delay time. In PWMY, equipment stated reduce casting time means to reduce delay time, do not have any effect in "casting time". Duhh...
Cooldown Time
Cooldown time start count after Delay time. Means when the bar full. Yes it run together with Cast Time. There is no way you can reduce cooltime delay at the moment (i think in the future too). Example, A skill need 5 seconds to cast "Delay time", then 3 second for "Casting time", If cooling needed is 4 seconds, cooling time will start countdown by the 5th second not 8th second and ready for the next cycle by 9th seconds (5 + 4).
Example:
______Filling Green Status Bar____________Firing period till hit target._____________Cooling till the next round
----------Chanting / Delay Time-----------> | -----Cast Time -----> | -------------------------Cooldown Time -------------------->
-----------------------5 Seconds-----------------------------------------3 Seconds -------------------------------------------------------4 seconds
*Use Cast -Minus Equipment to reduce casting delay.
Feel free to debate :)
