Talk:Ritual Lord

Has anybody checked if this affects Nature Rituals? -- 20:09, 20 February 2006 (CST)
 * Will do on 3/24. For now I take it at face value. -PanSola 01:22, 21 February 2006 (CST)
 * I'm told it does, but I've not verified 1st hand. Alxa 13:51, 2 May 2006 (CDT)

does it work after the skill's been activated?
or does it only work if you use it before you use the skill that you want to recharge faster?
 * Nope. | Chuiu 21:23, 2 May 2006 (CDT)
 * Q:"Orange? or not orange?" A:"Nope" -PanSola 21:31, 2 May 2006 (CDT)
 * Touche. I was answering the title.  It doesn't work to recharge the skill faster after the skill has already been recharging. Much like Mantra of Inscriptions. | Chuiu 08:27, 3 May 2006 (CDT)

clarification?
"This skill actually reduces the skill recharge duration, not the rate of the skill recharge." I have no idea what this means, and to me its saying it does X but it dosent do X. Could someone clarrify?
 * Clarification: This means that with a 33% faster recharge, a skill cast with a 60 second recharge time would be finished in 40 seconds (2/3 of original recharge time), instead of 45 (1.33 times the original recharge speed). -PanSola 06:29, 17 May 2006 (CDT)
 * I do not understand the "clarification", as a 33% faster recharge for a skill which has 60 seconds recharge time means -to me- a 40 seconds recharge time; what else could it mean? I suppose that if this skill is casted whilst the other skill is recharging, then the remaining recharge time will be reduced a 33%, so that it is the speed of recharge what is increased a 33%; as the recharge time is inversely proportional to the speed. Isn't?
 * A "rate" is a "frecuency" at which something happends, if the recharge time is decreased the rate of the casting may increase as long as there is energy and other favorable circunstances; what sense would have it that a skill's recharge time were decreased to 40 but the rate of casting the skill were locked to 60 seconds?
 * If something recharges 33% faster, it would mean it is recharging at 1.33 (133%) = 4/3 times the original rate. The frequency of recharge happens.  Thus, the time it takes originally to recharge a skill 3 times (180 seconds for a 60-sec recharge skill) now can recharge 4 times.  180/4 = 45 seconds.  This is what "recharge 33% faster" means.  Because rate and time are inversely proportional, recharging rate increase by 33% = 4/3 original recharge rate -> 3/4 original recharge time.  On the other hand, 33% less recharge time = 2/3 original recharge time -> 3/2 original recharge rate = 1.5 original recharge rate = recharging 50% faster.  - 12:15, 26 May 2006 (CDT)
