So...Spontaneity...

[SpankWustler]

Far as Spont goes, though, 10m is inexcusable. Bluntly, I've felt a lot of the game's JAs have had too restrictive timers, thus choking off job diversity, but that's another argument.

In this case, I have total confidence that there would be no argument. The response to every new job ability has been "Oh, this is neat I wonder what the reca ... Ten minutes?! [expletive]! Really? [more vulgar and creative expletive]!!!"

[Tashan]

That response added nothing.

The only thing to say is see the previous reply, as I'd only be repeating myself.

[Deschel]

Relax, we'll be able to merit it to 8 minutes.

Seriously, I would have laughed this off as useless if it were every five minutes. Ten is unbelievable.

I can't wait until level 99 when we'll get to cast our big end game spell, Deodorize II.

LOL!
I can't really see many uses for Spontaneity right now, but like everyone else I'm hoping for a shorter recast timer.

This needs to be decreased to at most 3 minutes or be removed.

...Idk you guys might be over exaggerating. I think the reason SE made it a 10 minute timer was because you can give it to other people in your party... and it would kindof chipin your 2hr if you had instant cast every 3 minutes. I don't think SE wants you guys to be able to cast instantly very often (they think that's what fast cast is for).

The way I see it it's just a skill to help you on long recast spells like raise or help other mages cast instantly... then again I don't play rdm so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Forgive me if this is obvious, but has anyone tested if this can indeed be used on other party members, and also if it eliminates recast as well as casting time?

If the black mage ja can be casted on other party members Im sure this can be as well. Just in case I'll go test it out now for you.

"I know next to nothing about this ability, and don't play the job....stop complaining" really? Is this guy being serious? I can't tell.

[Darkwizardzin]

ok just did it (sorry for delay internet went out) yes you can use the ja on party members and it does set recast to 0.

I just feel people are too quick to conplain about somthing. The people in this thread make it seems that the ja they just got is worthless and does nothing for there job because they think the recast is too long. imo it's not worthless and it does help the job (not saying SE can't lower the recast just saying the skill still works for what it's used for 10minute recast or not).
