Casting Speed[edit | edit source]
Casting Speed refers to the entire technique casting animation from start to finish. Casting speed is composed of two distinct components: Time To Cast and Endlag. Casting Speed varies between techniques, classes, and even weapons. Techniques in any context reach their maximum Casting Speed at or before Lv16.
Time To Cast[edit | edit source]
Time To Cast (TTC) refers to the amount of time from the beginning of the casting animation to the time that the TP to cast the technique has been deducted and the effect of the technique happens.
Endlag[edit | edit source]
Endlag refers to the amount of time after TTC that the animation is still in effect and the player cannot perform any actions such as casting techniques, attacking, or using tools. The only factor that affects Endlag is what technique the player is casting and the level of that technique.
Casting Speed Items[edit | edit source]
The rare unit 
V801 is the only item in the game that has the sole purpose of increasing casting speed.
Other Factors[edit | edit source]
Factors that affect casting speed outside of the V801 and technique/level include character class, whether the player is armed or unarmed, and in unique cases the specific weapon the character is using. For detailed information and exact casting speed data, see Game mechanics/Frame data.
