It interesting that will put mage robe a cast time, the dev is looking foward

But I think for any weapon or armor, put a small cast time, only gives advantage for who play near North America. People on Europe, South America, Asia and Africa can have more ping then the cast time. And will not be able to react at the time.

I dont have a solution, but I think it is a thing to discuss and think if we want a competitive and a fair fight.


Purging Shield (Mage Robe)

• Cast Time: 0s -> 0.3s
  

I was searching, an average human responds in between 200ms to 250ms (215ms). With a very good reaction you can get a 150ms.

A player with low ping and good react could react in 150ms + 80ms = 230ms
he can react to a skill with 300ms
A player with high ping and good react could react in 150ms + 180ms = 330ms
he will not react to a skill with 300ms

A player with huge ping and good react could react in 150ms + 350ms = 500ms
A player with low ping and average react could react in 215ms + 80ms = 295ms


You can test your react(just click on blue) and see the literature and graphs in this site:
humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime




-----------------------------------------------------------------

you with low ping and good react could react in 150ms + 15ms = 165ms
you with high ping and good react could react in 150ms + 40ms = 190ms
you with low ping and average react could react in 215ms + 15ms = 230ms
you with high ping and average react could react in 215ms + 40ms = 255ms

So a minimum of 165ms and a maximum 255ms
