Rapid Fire not working with Gauss Barrel.

[zayl]

Would it be possible to get some confirmation whether or not this was intentional:-An issue wherein the black mage action “Ley Lines” and machinist action “Rapid Fire” would affect the cast times for actions such as “Teleport” and “Return”.

I adored the Gauss Barrel stance toggle and I am honestly heartbroken that it was removed. Machinist dps is getting a bad reputation already I don't believe they deserved to see such a massive play style change. If anyone doesn't know what I am referring to it was better dps to pull without barrel, toss it on with rapid fire instant cast use all your Cool-downs with the additional 20% then remove the barrel to auto attack until the next rapid fire in your rotation. Now we stand there casting barrel with all of our Buffs ticking down, a massive hit to our dps but more importantly the enjoyment and complexity of the Job.

TLDr; Machinist was crazy fun because of Gauss Barrel now its not enjoyable and it has lower dps than before the hotfix.
