This is pretty far off- clickies certainly will refresh the SAME spell if the spells cool down is less or equal to the spells cast time
so the clicky refreshing the icon isnt gonna do anything for spells like harvest or even teleport spells but a heal spell like Remedy or Sup heal...they have cooldown times of 2.25 seconds and cast times greater than the CD
so when u insta refresh a spell like that- then cast back to back- the cool down of the spell IS being met (remember cooldown has to b < cast time of spell) then wow it fires like Nirgon said....
pls fix for all spell slots-theres no bug here just broken spell gems not refreshing like the top one
the Game doesnt check if the cool down of spells is met til AFTER the spell is cast not to initialize the act of casting
thats why clickies to refresh n cast faster works- but the spells CD has to be less or equal to its cast time for the spell to fire properly

so your suggesting that in classic, recast time started counting down at the START of the cast? not bloody likely... that would have made for some pretty interesting interrupt mechanics.
there was another mechanic at play but it wasnt this. we'll need to keep digging.
If Nirgon is correct about Lure of Ice, then my theory is that some pop-era changes put longer recast times on spells like that, making them not work the same as in original.
you guys are getting confused with the post-pop era changes that emplemented warning messages like "Spell recast time not yet met"
