Fairy eating cooldown of Illumination/Whispering...

[zeopower6]

Sometimes during transitions between the fairy types, the CD will go off for the fairy skills but it won't get used... is it possible to have the skills work even after the fairy transition? This also happens sometimes with Blessing and Consolation since they take a while so on that end is it possible to make the skills a bit more responsive than they are now? It seems like a step back from the adjustments in 4.0 to responsiveness.

It's a combination of the skills getting eaten and embrace being instant now so you need to wait for the GCD. We've been complaining about it since launch alongside the fact that galvanize has higher priority over catalyze so we can't deploy off the tanks. The design team's response in the last live letter was "What SCH problems?".. So yeah

Smn has the same problems it seems to be a problem with the pets themselves which is funny because queen(mch's mech) should be the standard for them i.e for smns if enkindle is up as they go uses it automatically same with sch seraph and Consolidation if up.

For now i would try to time it no less than 4 secs on the timer before you order the fairy to use it's skill to avoid 'Ghosting' as best as possible.

Yeah, it's a problem both SMN and SCH have. Just gotta deal with it; I don't think the devs have any plans/means to fix it right now..

As the above poster said, just delay the action by a sec or two after you summon/transition. Otherwise, the command simply goes to the Void, and you're stuck dumbfounded, doubly so if you needed that action immediately.
