<p>Has anyone else noticed jesters cap not reducing some reuse timers by the right amount</p><p>the main one i have noticed is on evac i have the master one and 5aa points on it so i should have a 50% reuse reduction so if i cast it on myself then evac the reuse timer should be 7 and a half mins but it only goes down to 10 mins</p>

<p>It's been discussed to death.  If you use the search function you'll find a more complete answer.</p><p>But in short:  SOE uses fuzzy math.  You're getting 150% to your recast, in other words...</p><p>15minutes /1.5 = 10 minutes</p>

With JC lasting 30s and the casting time for any call being 30s, I don't see how that can work...<img src="/smilies/0320a00cb4bb5629ab9fc2bc1fcc4e9e.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

With casting speed buffs from AAs, it drops below 30 sec.

I can confirm that . call + jesters -> 30 min recast instead of an hour .

Another one that have funky recast is BD which ends up at 7 mins. Even with the fuzzy math, 10 / 1.5 = 6,66 ~ 6 mins 40 seconds. What's even more noticeable was that when I looked at my evac spell in the spellbook while I was cating it (with jester's on) the recast in the description was aroun 8 mins, but then ended up beaing 10 after finishing cast.
