<p>The topic is <strong>Curseweaving </strong>under the Defiler tab in the AA chart.<strong> </strong></p><p>It reads:</p><p>Hastens the duration, casting, recovery, and reuse speed of all Cursing abilities. </p><p> Effects:</p><p> Increases duration by 5%</p><p> <strong><em>Improves casting, recover, and reuse speed by 50%.</em></strong></p><p>There are several Curse spells, so I'll use Abomination as the example, but all behave the same way.</p><p>Before taking the Curseweaving AA, the cast time is 2 seconds, recast is 18.5 secs, and the recovery isn't listed on the spell (one of many such bugs in the game) but I assume it is the standard 0.5 secs.</p><p>After taking the Curseweaving AA point, the cast time becomes 1.33 seconds, recast 12.7 secs, and the recovery suddenly becomes listed, and is 0.33 seconds. </p><p>At first blush, that appears to be only a 33% reduction of cast, recast, and recovery times, not the 50% as specified on the AA.</p><p>What am I missing?</p><p>I found this issue about 6 months ago as I raised my defiler, and rediscovered it again when respec'ing AA's today to put some into the Shadow line before earning enough new ones to reach where I wanted to go. I was careful to record the before and after spell metrics this time, and had no other variables going on that might have tainted the experiment.</p>
