The Gate Guard in Lion's Arch doesn't do anything for me when I talk to him:

When does the Fast Casting actually take effect? For example, say my Me/N is about to cast Parasitic Bond (1 sec cast) on a monk with Holy Veil. Does the Holy Veil effect hit first, or does the Fast Casting? If it's Veil, that would bump the cast to 2 seconds which Fast Casting would then decrease. Similar questions could be asked for anything that modifies casting times, whether Arcane Conundrum or Red Rock Candies.
fast cast is applied upon casting the spell...then holy veil takes effect.

Answer me this: would it make sense to see a part of a storyline before the events that led to it? Food for thought.

It's not the too-early nature of the description you should be sorry about...

That was my assumption (thanks for the info), but how do we actually know that? With the current FC, whichever one takes effect first will end up with the same result.

I'm assuming then the correct order of operations is Fast Casting -> HCT mods -> skill effect modifiers (Veil/Migraine/Healer's Boon/etc.)?

No skill that only buffed recharge of memser spells would ever be classified as an Elite.
Recovery buffed ALL spells ...or atleast it used to, it probably won't anymore...

And tell me, good sir, why they would be "fooking" morons for changing an abusive primary attribute into a balanced primary attribute?

That's what I was wondering but, of course, I get a cryptic reply to my question. I can only guess that you have to listen to all of the new dialog that takes place at the Shning Blade camp.

Awesome. Now with the decrease recharge time, I can upkeep Stoneflesh Aura without Signet of Illusions for Raptor farming. Mesmer will also have superior energy management now and double the energy denial. 27e every 10 seconds and 9e loss every 10 seconds. Nice.

I just don't like the "Fast Casting decreases the activation time of your Spells and Signets. (No effect for non- Mesmer skills with an activation time less then 2 seconds.)" That is so unfair. They're nerfing Mesmer to play Mesmer only in PvP. Might as well make it so warrior don't have the armor penetration in non-warrior professions, necromancers can only gain energy with allied death, ranger only have reduced energy management with ranger skills, etc for PvP.

Agreed on the second half of your post. You were being sarcastic, though. I'm not.

Yes. It would have been far better to wreck these primary attributes than half the skills in the game. (well the ones that matter anyway. Lol armor penetration and SR in PvP)

Seriously at least half the nerfs in GW come from primary attribute abuse, and the nerfs usually leaves the classes poorer off for it.

You have to be pretty dense to not realize why that is.
