Default Faking out a d-shot and aftercast delay

Hi,

i personally don;t play ranger, but i have noticed on wiki that d-shot has a 0.75sec aftercast. does that mean, that after a d-shot, i have 0.75 secs to cast a spell or if i am attacking, does that mean he cannot move for 0.75 sec during the aftercast?

when i used to play ele, i noticed that during the PBAoE aftercast delay (back before PBAoE was buffed to .75sec aftercast), i couldn;t do anything for that whole 1sec.

hope someone can clear this up, it would be good to know that when i get a dshot how much time i have until the next arrow hits.

also, how much time would i have in reality before something like savage shot would it. we are presuming the ranger is at the edge of the radar and perhaps using a hornbow.

cheers

Aftercast=Nothing can be done, moving, casting, whatever

Only ranger interrupt attack skills have an aftercast delay out of all attack skills ( I think)

That means for .75 seconds he sits there

Savage has a 1/4 activation, I think a 1/2 before it reaches target.

So after a dshot, it takes 1.25 seconds for savage shot to hit you

EDIT: Found this crap, but who knows Wiki Sucks

Ranger Bow Attacks with an activation time of 0.5 seconds have an aftercast delay of 1.25 seconds and the arrow is fired 0.25s after activation.

Afaik all ranged attack skills with an activation time of 0.5 seconds have an aftercast delay of 1.25 seconds, i.e. [[Harrier's Toss].

Ranger interupts state they are 1/2 second, all activate in much less, probably 1/4 so not sure when this 1/4 second after the 1/2 second activation comes in. Time to hit depends on arrow flight time to target so is affected by bow type, range, RTW/FW.
