One of the reasons WoW had 14 million subscribers

Then the tooltip needs updated to actually factor in animation speeds.

Too much information would go against the anti-"min-max" nature of this game. There is a reason for why there are so few competing stats, that we are not given the actual effect of stats (like exactly how much strength affects parry), etc. Whether or not including animation speeds should be included, may very well be on the wrong side of the line.

I also thought people were against dumbing down the game? It is evidently dumbing down the game, to spell out that casting time and animation time are not the same.

No if say you cast something that is supposed to be instant cast but in fact theres a .5 second to 1.0 second animation for the cast it is in fact not instant cast do to the fact you have a .5 to 1 second cast time So the tool tip is in fact wrong do to the fact the animation is now the cast timer... Cause you still have to wait for the animation to finish to use another ability.. Thats the point i was trying to make sorry for the confusion.
