    With the change that Spell Speed directly boosts DoT damage, most skills which increase speed have been changed to directly affect your GCD rather than the stat. You can tell it's working by comparing the tooltip for a spell with and without the speed boost; the cast and recast times will display the difference.

    That's the thing. I tried that, but there was no differences.

    You probably kept your mouse over the ability before and after using Leylines when looking for the difference, when you have to move your mouse off and on to see the tooltip difference. Leylines very clearly shaves off 15% cast/recast.

    Oh I see it now I was looking at the action & trait window, because 90% of my attacks are macro icons. Thank you :P

    Spell speed / Skill speed boosting DoT damage is a lie perpetuated by the Illuminati.

    It has about the same effect as Determination on dots. You're welcome.
