Recast Time is the amount of time a player must wait before casting the same spell, or using the same job ability (or ability within the same category) again.
On evoliths Recast Time is described as Ability Delay (JAs) or Recast Delay (spells).

  • Recast Time can be reduced by Haste effects or the job trait Fast Cast.
  • The maximum amount that recast time can be reduced by is 50% reduction.
  • New Recast = floor( [1-Fast Cast] * ( [1-Haste] * Recast ) )
  • The actual formula takes Haste and Fast Cast as fractions expressed in the 1024 system (x% haste on a gear generally means x*10/1024)
  • The game first calculates the haste part and rounds it down to the first decimal, which means the actual recast is

New Recast = floor( [1-Fast Cast] * floor(( [1-Haste] * Recast )*10)/10 ) which is the formula that should be used when comparing different sets of gear.( source : http://www.bluegartrls.com/forum/61643-fast-cast-other-haste-stuff.html and http://www.bluegartrls.com/forum/52417-yey-another-haste-topic.html) Suggestions that fast cast is applied first instead of haste found here http://www.bluegartr.com/forum/showthread.php?t=94856. The formula would be

  • New Recast =floor( [1-haste] * floor(( [1-Fast cast] * Recast )*10)/10 )
