I'm fine with who I am, it's who you are that I don't like.

Without Goblin Skull Earring:

1. Cast Canni.
2. Wait 1.5 seconds for global cool down, which prevents the casting of any spells.
3. Cast Canni.

Many will time Canni to med ticks and sit between casts to eliminate this inefficiency of not being able to re-cast canni for additional mana gain. Timing med ticks also causes you to take longer then 1.5 seconds many times waiting for tick before you stand and cast Canni again.

With Goblin Skull Earring:

1. Cast Canni
2. Click Goblin Skull Earring
3. Immediately re-cast Canni

You now no longer have to sit between casts wasting time or rapidly top off mana by chain casting Canni. You have eliminated 1.5 second delay and any lost time waiting for med ticks. This means you gain mana much, much faster. It turns Canni into a poor mans Manastone (one with a cast time).

Most people will make a hotkey of Earring slot and put it on hot bar. As example I put Goblin Earring on NumPad* and Canni on NumPad9 and after Canni completes hit NumPad* followed by Numpad9.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

mini delayed required if your client/you are fast. Working right.

Canni needs to be in your first gem slot for this to work. The first gem slot is the only one that gets the instant re-fresh.

Not true. Any slot will be fine.

Can Confirm (Although, I always have Canni Top anyways). Just need to add split second delay between completion of canni and either strike of earring or recast of Canni, they delay is a split second and wont slow you down.
