Guild Wars 2

Skill details will only mention the casting time but not the aftercast delay of the skill.
Skill aftercast is a delay period that you need to wait out until you can activate the next skill.

This is rather annoying since I have to manually grab a stopwatch and count how many times i can use a specific skill in a minute and it becomes overwhelmingly difficult to calculate the aftercast of any skill that has a cooldown.

Its becoming a horribly boring chore to compare and calculate the damage over time of different skills, even if they have the same casting time.
Grenades and bombs for example, the skill detail mentions both skills have an activation time of 1/2 seconds but they carry different aftercast time.

Aftercast of grenade = 0.5 seconds
Aftercast of bomb= 0.35 seconds

Skill details need A LOT of help. Power/Healing ratio, actual cast time, actual duration, actual aftercast, etc.

i guess you need this time to correctly setup your macro skills chain right ???

i think this is not allowed if this is you plan to do.

There is an option to have the timer say how much time till the skill refreshes…

That’s cooldown, not aftercast, and it’s impossible to read precisely.
