    Quick magic

    Hello,

    I just saw with a friend that our spells done with quick magic don't have their recast to 0, like it was before. Is it normal ?

    Thx.

    I've been noticing this bug before as well since the April update, so whatever's causing this was something changed at that point.

    What's actually happening is that when Quick Magic activates, the recast shown in your menu gets placed at what its normal maximum would be (ignoring any recast reductions such as from Haste and Fast Cast) and the spell gets blacked out on your magic list, preventing you from selecting the spell that way. However, the spell can still be immediately cast again though text command/macro usage, regardless of what is displayed in the magic list. For the time being, if you want to immediately cast a Quick Magicked spell again, you will have to do it that way instead of from the magic list.

    This isn't what used to happen prior to the April patch (recast would be displayed as zero in the magic list as it should be when Quick Magic activates, and may be immediately cast again from the menu)

    This was addressed in today's Version Update. You can now enjoy your Quick Magic without having to wait for recast timers.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
