It's supposed to be 12 seconds. Not 9. Not 14.

No, it's supposed to be 9. The issue is that all disciplines currently run through the spell/buff system. This introduce two problems:

1) It limits the granularity that we can specify for disc durations to nearest 6 seconds (tick).
2) The durations usually extend beyond the specified number of seconds due to how buff timers work.

It's on my list to fix, but writing new systems for things that are already reasonably accurate tend to stay at the bottom of that list.
