Quick Summoning mage AA

[tinkaa]

I just bought Quick Summoning 3 on my mage.
It is a very nice AA, especially if you're the only mage and in charge of summoning things before raids. But considering you have to spend 18 AAs in it and it doesn't stack with casting speed increment items, 18 AAs seem a lot. At least to me - I usually have a little lag that slows chain summoning more than the casting time itself.

Would it be possible to make it stack with casting speed increment items?

There's a fixed cap of half the spells duration set by the client or so i've been told, I want 1 second runes ;(

Oh
Well, disregard then.

To be honest, I don't think quick summoning works. When rods are called for on raids I'll sometimes begin casting and Awardis will begin immediately after me and yet I'll finish casting first.

I have no casting speed increment and only the first level of Quick Summoning. Awardis has all three levels and no casting speed increment.

Just an observation unless someone can confirm it. I've also experienced a slight delay after the casting bar has finished since I bought the ability.

This has been buglisted forever, but ignored/nothing done.

Goodbye 18 aas then. I seriously didn't pay attention until 3rd rank.

At least I can abuse this topic to point out the old bug :toot:

Yeah I was super disappointed after spending 9aa's and runecloak only got 0.1 secs faster lol.

I'm guessing Quickbuff/summon has some elements hardcoded into the client so has to be a buff quickening aa but maybe it could be changed to do something else aswell? With some imagination it could be renamed to something more general that has effect x and also speeds up buffs as a side effect (which would make sense with its creative description )
