Recast timer, Animation

All the skill and abilities have a recast time. But the animation doesn't show how much time left for me to to recast my skills/abilities.

The animation looks like a clock. When its near 12 oclock, I cant really see it whether my skills a ready to use.
I gives a quick glows when its ready. But when in the heat of battle, i cant bother if it glows or not. I cannot check my skill buttons all the time. I need to be looking at the battle. I'll check the hotbar when i have too.

Please Implement a way to show how much time is left till my recast.
Give me a choice of a clock animation or a timer anymation.

I love your game.
I am a Final Fantasy Fan.
Peace out.

An option to overlay a cooldown text on the icon would be great.

The funny thing is that an overlay of the cooldown text is already implemented in the game.

The problem is that it only shows up when you highlight the skill. My suggestion is to keep the icon shadowed and show this cooldown text on all skills that aren't tied to the GCD natively on the hotbar. It is very aggravating to think that your skill is ready for use only to find out it still has 10-20 secs left to go. It's very hard to tell with the current implementation.
