There's a set casting delay, like frozen orb. |

Faster cast rate speeds up the casting animation, but there is a set cooldown rate that cannot be changed. _________________ " 'You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take' - Wayne Gretzky " - Michael Scott |

Yes, it is FCR that affects the cast rate. There is a cooldown, so FCR doesn't really help you cast THAT much faster, but it is still very helpful. The faster you cast, the faster you can start running away and the less time your opponent has to interrupt you. |

fcr barely helps u at all. the most it will do is let u move a few milliseconds faster. _________________

Yes, and that is a good thing you see. Maybe you don't realize it, but pvp is pretty fast paced in this game and a few frames counts. |

a few milliseconds doesn't even make up the time in one frame. hell, i dont think there are even monitors that can update at millisecond speeds... _________________

Oh boy...where to start. There are something like 24 or 25 frames per second in this game. My CRT monitor has a 60Hz refresh rate (refreshes 60 times a second, this is sort of slow too). So the monitor is easily fast enough. I don't know about LCDs and I don't like them for gaming, but even those are starting to have very fast response times (8ms is high end from what I've seen). Note that 8ms is 8/1000ths of a second (125Hz) and 1 frame is 1/24 or 1/25 of a second (41.67ms or 40ms). Worst argument I've ever heard. If a few frames is so unimportant, why bother with fhr/fcr/fpa, etc. for anything? Sure FCR on FoH isn't as important as FCR with a no delay spell, but it still gives you that little bit of extra maneuverability and can mean life or death in some situations. If I didn't have 75% FCR on my FoH switch, I probably would not have beaten Knarl's necromancer because I probably would have been raped by bone spirit trails. Standing still is just not something you want to do in pvp and the longer your cast rate is, the longer you are standing still. |

well... 25fps means 1 frame = .04 seconds or 400 milliseconds defiently nothing is done in diablo in a few milliseconds. with big cool down spells FCR marginally helps you spam. [it additions is realative to the cast time + the cool down time.] but yes every frame counts for something the fcr additions here just help u start running 1 frame faster (or mayber 2). this is a bit of help in diablo. _________________ Magic missile doesn't kill people, wizards who cast magic missile kill people.  |

as said it is based on fcr, but id recommend that you have at least SOME fcr on him rather than none. you will notice a large different between a 15 frame (0 fcr) and 10 frame (75 fcr) when casting. the advantage of getting the fcr is that when you cast foh, it will go off fast and you will have time to charge around while dodging any projectiles that are sent at you. if you have a slow fcr, you will be basically be standing there and will not have any down time where you can move around. as for stuff to put in the weapon, your best bet would probably be stat jewels _________________ *supercow2000 *supercow2005 Last.fm  |
