Casting Speed?
My base casting speed is 120. With the ring, head, chest, and legs I get up to 235. I've tested it, and I can literally see NO difference in actual casting speed. Does speed just not go past a certain point?

it does, but we are talking about frames of difference here, so of course you can't quite tell by just eyeballing it.

if your question is if it's worth it, uhhh no, not really, i don't remember where the threshold is, but past that point there is no point in going for casting speed if you are not commited to go all the way through.

But I did go all the way though, every piece of gear I could. It nearly doubled my casting speed but I couldn't tell the difference at all. And I cast a LOT of spells to make sure.

99 atn 99int and 99 fth too?, this is what i mean by going ALL the way through. not only gear.

as i said, we are talking about frames, so you would need to record them and compare them frame by frame.

But dude, if I double my casting speed and see literally no noticeable difference, is it really gonna matter?

ok buddy sorry if it comes out rough but, congratulations, you made me give up on trying to explain, instead 'ill drop this video:

and say once again, we are talking about frames of difference, not something you can eye ball unless you GO ALL THE WAY THROUGH.

So all the way though gets you, on 4 spells, about .6 or .7 seconds faster? Man, that might be worth it on a good connection. But that ain't gonna help much against peeps from the us or russia.

indeed, oddly enough some of the slowest casting spells the difference while still near impossible to just see, can be felt.
