Harmony cooldown remover?
Before I invest in something expensive, what are my options for removing the cooldown on Harmony for my Druid? I have no experience tampering with cooldowns but I tend to say good enough with a couple Harmony casts and get killed for not thoroughly Harmony-ing everything.

There is another timer, called a "Global Cooldown", which greys out all of your spell slots until that "Global Cooldown" finishes, even if the spell is ready to cast again. If a spell hasn't finished the recast timer, it normally remains greyed out. You can force end the "Global Cooldown" by clicking an instant cast item, also known as a "clickie". https://wiki.project1999.com/Shrunke..._Skull_Earring is one such example. This is also known as a "GCD Item", which stands for "Global Cooldown Item". The top spell slot will un-grey out when you use a GCD item, even if the recast timer on the server hasn't finished. What this means is you can cast the top spell slot during the recast timer on the server, and if the recast timer on the server finishes before the casting is finished, you will land the spell. Otherwise, you will get a red message saying "Recast timer not met". In summary, the best you can do is cast Harmony 2.5 seconds sooner if you have a GCD item, and if you put Harmony in the top spell slot. This is because the cast time is 3 seconds, and you are casting the spell near the end of the recast timer on the server. I am not sure if it is worth it to do this, as you are only saving 2.5 seconds per Harmony, but you can try it. You need to keep a separate timer so you know when there is only 3 seconds left before the server recast timer finishes. You would start this 9.5 second timer as soon as Harmony finishes casting the first time. As soon as the 9.5 second timer finishes, start casting Harmony again.

You are thinking of a spell like Cannibalize, where the casting time and recasting time are similar enough to where you can just spam it without worry. Cannibalize has a 1.25 second cast time, and a 2.25 second recast time. It takes about a second to click your GCD item and start recasting, so it just works out by default. That is why you put Cannibalize in your top spell slot, so you can spam it as fast as possible.

So that Grim Aura clicky for example won't let me instantly recast Harmony? I'm a little confused about all of this.
What is the use case for the clicky then?

1. Put Harmony in your top spell slot. 2. Cast Harmony. 3. Click your GCD item ( https://wiki.project1999.com/Shrunke..._Skull_Earring ) as soon as Harmony finishes casting. 4. Start a 9.5 second timer on your computer, phone, gina, etc. 5. Cast Harmony again once that 9.5 second timer finishes. Repeat steps 3-5 for however many Harmonies you want to cast back to back. This will only work if you are casting Harmony back to back. You are saving 2.5 seconds per cast of Harmony after the first cast with this method. Whether or not you feel this is worth it is up to you. I personally don't think it is going to be a big benefit. You cannot remove the 12 second recast time with any game mechanic unfortunately.

If you instead put the spell in a non-top spell gem, then the GCD item is not relevant; the gem will remain grayed out for the full 12 seconds and no cooldown time will be saved. DSM's description is the only way to reduce the cooldown, and does so by as much as is possible. | |||

Anyone actually tested this with harmony? I feel like it didn’t work on spells with longer recast times for whatever reason. Could be wrong though, maybe I just didn’t get the timing down.
