Staff was spammable. As others have said, it was used not only to pull, but also to test spell range.

You'd pull a mob and spam Staff until it said Your target is out of range, that's how you knew to stop and start casting the quad spell.

I was also a wizard player from 2000-2004. I quadded many, many mobs using this method.

Cool show me logs, video, or screenshots even of casting faster than a dain hammer.

Otherwise the trust me bro argument has 0 merit.

And your half-baked pulling forum posts with NONE having players complaining about casting time on the staff?

To be honest, at this point the SoTF is so useful when solo'ing, I'd
equip it instead of the SotW. Remember, it's not just the debuff
abilty (which is so tiny as to not be noticable), it lets you judge
the range of your nukes, so you know when to stop running and start
blasting.
Whatever crusade your on: you're incorrect. You have no evidence, either. You claim it wasn't reverted, but you have 4 players here who claim to have played wizards and they all state it was instant and spammable.

I trust the other 3, over you.

Unsubbed. Don't bother responding to me.

Sorry patch notes and current evidence > trust me bro

As i said you can use the dian hammer on the move, just cant spam it 5 times a second. Which is in line with the patch notes

Also its worth noting, checking range is possible with literally ANY spell. The benefit of the clicky item is that it didnt have a long spell time requiring you to interupt to immediately check again.

So while I understand it was useable on the run, and understand wizards used it to check range once every half to full second, it was NOT spammable 4 to 5 times a second.

Looks like Testing with dain hammer yielded a maximum of 2.2 clicks per second on the move.
