Too much spellspeed screwing up AOE-rotation.

[StouterTaru]

After you Transpose, you get 1192 MP from an MP tick in Umbral Ice 1, then you spend 266 casting Fire 3, putting you at 926. You receive the second MP tick late during the Fire 3 cast, so it only gives you 74 MP, putting you at 1000 MP.

You should be under UI1 when the Fire3 goes off though, halving the cost to 133.

I'm running 593 Spell Speed on my dungeon set, and this is what works for me personally. After I Transpose, I don't mash Fire 3 right away. As soon as I see the MP tick (I just watch for a color change in the MP bar), then I hit Fire 3. Just the delay from human reaction time (0.2~0.25s) is enough to ensure a second full MP tick, which leaves you with enough MP to Fire 2 twice and Flare. Since the rotation is dependent upon Transpose's cooldown, waiting that fraction of a second doesn't have any impact upon your DPS.

Best solution, just don't button mash

266 is the halved cost. Fire 3 would be ridiculous if it cost less than Fire~

Maybe the cost is 1/4 then, I'm fairly sure that Fire3 is only 133 in UI.

UI1 is 1/2, UI2/3 is 1/4
