Question Weapon of Quickening

Does anyone know if this stacks with Fast Casting (like Mantra of Recovery) ?

I appreciate the link, but this tells me there's at least one exception to that rule.

He doesn't know.

Pick a skill you're very familiar with and use it with/without the spell and high fast casting.

Pretty sure that fast casting ignores the stacking cap for all effects. The stacking cap for cast time and recharge time only applies to benefits from skills/effects/items, similar to how the armor stacking cap works.

There are a few bugs related to armor stacking though, so it wouldn't surprise me if there were a few related to fast casting stacking as well.

In any case, the stacking would be multiplicative so the actual benefits would be a lot less than what you would expect. Weapon of Quickening would only knock off about 16-20% from the base recharge time on average.
