Yes, I come from WOW. No I am not trying to make this game like WOW. Just something that has been bothering me, and I have heard others share my sentiments.

Why on earth would the GCD be longer than our longest-cast-time go-to spell? Most spells are what, like 2.29 seconds? And the GCD is 2.5? I don't know why? It trips me up all of the time. I know the reason is because I played WOW for 6 years, so I am very used to that flow for casting.

In this case, though, I am still getting tripped up trying to do my chain cast (when needed), and nothing happens because GCD. And there's an extra second wasted to recognize the issue, so it delays healing a little.

I mean... we have to manage mana, threat, and as if that weren't enough to keep us from being WotLK spam healers, we have this really awkward GCD. I know there are some ways to drop that down a bit. Still, I really question why they went with this GCD.
