Axemanship...what does it do?

See the issue is that my brother would equip the pugalist skill when playing his lancer.

His second wind now has a shorter recast timer, but actually doesn't cool off any faster than normal. Whats the normal cool down? Let's say it was 60 seconds, when he uses it his timer will instead say 45 and when it ticks down the icon will highlight as if he could use it again. Try as he may he still can't use it until the normal cooldown is up despite his action bar showing second wind available to use for well over 10 seconds.

that sound more like a glitch.

That probably has nothing to with the _manship traits actually. Its an issue that I believe is due to memory leakage (so I've heard) and happens to a lot of people. Whenever I first start XIV my timers are fine but over hours of playtime they become less and less accurate. Buffs/debuffs will also have incorrect timers and its just a whole bunch of mess. I hope 2.0's new servers fix this issue entirely.

You should have your brother manually time the recast with a stopwatch. Although I don't think the manship traits necessarily have to alter recast, they can also alter potency or both. I know for Provoke with swordsmanship the recast is knocked down several seconds and the potency of the action is increased aswell.

After being logged in the game for extended periods of time all your timers will 'glitch' out and be off by several seconds. It's very annoying. Restarting the client (shutting it all the way down not just logging out) will fix your timers.

Interesting I'll see what that does for him, IIRC we have tried to restart before but I'll double check before going to the tech forums.
