[skill]deadly haste[/skill]
The description says the cast time and recharge scale to critical strikes, when it doesn't. The cast time and recharge for all half-range spells is reduced 50% regardless of your points in critstrikes. Please fix it before I get owned by another ice spear machine gun. Thanks (or not).
Sorry mods, I really didn't know where to put this.
Deadly Haste not working as intended

You could have done something productive, like send in a support ticket, instead of complaining here you got owned in RA...
moko
you made the discovery 2 months too late..:| ya its a bit incredible, but at least icespear now has a use, and rezbots pwn! 
floppinghog
lol reminds me of the time i went to RA with an elementalist dancing dagger machine gun, and siphon speed beast, no one could kill me, and constant snares, and annoying ppl. was mad fun.
Former Ruling
Yes, use it in RA and you get tons of "WTF I'm REporting you FOr Hax!"
And every match has atleast 1 mesmer or necro/mes with diversion or Depravity.

It's still a bug, isn't it? I mean, it eliminates the aftercastand that's not describled on the skill.
fallot
No, there's still an aftercast. Otherwise you'd have Ice Spears as fast as you could push the button.

"Did some additional testing with an Assassin and Rez Chant. Noticed that it took some 4 secs for it to cast. Anyway, it seems that instead of reducing the spell cast time by 5%, it reduces it to 5%"

So if you're going to use it, you should take all of your points out of Critical Strikes?
Interesting.

Yes, it does make them cast at 5%...which makes for unbelievable dps with Ice Spear. Of course, today everytime I see an E/A put up water + elementental attunement I smile...because they get owned a short while later when I diversion their ice spear. Oops, only one damage skill!

Thats just an example, but how RA works. RA is basically the luck of the draw - will you get a team decent enough to own the newbs on the other team.

actually, if you play spirit spammer, wanderlust, pain, shadowsong, bloodsong, etc etc, its easy glad points.

I did this build one day after NF was released. I thought the damage sucked.

But yes, if you play a spirit spammer or a monk glad points are fairly easy.
LagunaCid - the DPS probably did suck when you tryed it. Assassin=Crit Strike points=Slower Ice Spear.
