Subject: sign if you want old mindflay back
   Give us the old mindflay back or please tell us this is a bug.

If this goes through, I am going to just use my alt from now on.

   Forgive the delay in response, I've been out sick and playing catch up today.

The change where you don't recast the same spell during an existing channel was intentional. This was done to help players by preventing lost effectiveness when they were trying to recast as fast as possible (by mashing the button). The side-effect seems to be less DPS and fewer proc opportunities, which wasn't intentional and what we're currently looking into.

What I'm basically stating is that it is not our intention to nerf the DPS and we're investigating.

Q u o t e:
I just went on the test realm to check this out.. and to my amazement...
The cooldown is at the beginning of the spell now! We get to chain it again.
/claps excitedly for Eyonix


That's correct, we removed the code until we're able to implement it void of any unwanted side-effect. It's doubtful that we'll revisit the change anytime soon however, as it's been tasked as low priority.

Go melt your faces.
