I provided reference for a patch note that indicates something isnt quite right with a mechanic. In fact I provided 2 patch notes indicating the same function of all activateable instant clicks had the same universal spell cast time to slow down the "spam".

Noone has refuted it with actual evidence, in fact when someone thought they had a gotcha of actual logs, it turned out to be untrue and supported my theory.

And in today's P99 client when i have a ping of 60ish, i struggle to hit 5 cast per second which generally includes a "you can't use" command between each attempt...

His logs arent consistent with today's P99 client so I doubt they are accurate for 2001...

I understand the staff functionality is pretty heavily engrained in P99 culture, but its just not accurate.

With the short cast time indicated on the patch notes, you would still be able to use on the move, you would still be able to quickly check range (even though you can do this with literally every spell since range checks happen first), and you would still get 2 to 3 clicks per second in. However you wouldnt be able to click 4 to 5 times per second.

Are you right clicking or pressing a button? Different systems handle that in the client.
