That, and the fact that I took the AGI line makes it so much less of an issue with that casting speed/reduction in casting timers.

Honestly, sometimes I have to laugh at what people complain about concerning the game. I mean, it's as if SOE made all of us so used to complaining about not having the big stuff fixed, that now we are so used to doing that, that we instinctively throw in the miniscule problems as well.

In my humble opinion, if you know your class as well as most of us should (or claim to), you should have a pretty darn good knowledge of how long your spells last and when to expect them back up, no? I mean, you've only killed how many thousands of mobs with the same routine?

And specifically to Illuminator...this is your NUMBER ONE GRIEF in the WHOLE GAME? Come on, I think even you know you can find something better than that.

I'm honestly not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers, seriously. I'm just trying to speak from a logical point of view. Is this icon issue causing the deaths of hoards of casters?
