100% Cast reduction with holy stick[1] and other gears

[Razer]

Holystick reduces 25% casting time for Magnus. So is it possible for one to achieve IC by using with 2 berzes And a DI+DL combo ?

Does it stack like that or does only reduces Magnus time in a compound fashion that is after all other reductions. Meaning if one person has a 1 second cast time for magnus after all cast reductions(Berzes, cast robes etc) then holystick makes it 0.75 seconds cast.

I need answers from people who have experimented with this on other servers.

This is why RMS test server is handy :p

You should be able to run it with the aRO files. All you pretty much need is the clientinfo.
Alternatively:
1. Download eA trunk which is about 150~ MB
2. Extract the clientinfo.xm from aRO's GRF.
3. Change the IP to 127.0.0.1
4. Run your server files

And boom, you have your own local testserver. Now just make yourself a level 99 GM and you're good to test pretty much anything and everything you want to.

By reading the scripts, I'd have to say it is not possible to achieve Instant Cast with that set of gears. Just think of how Cast Reduction and Bragi work right now.

Berze Card script: bonus bCastrate,-30
Holy Stick script: bonus2 bCastrate,156,-25; bonus2 bCastrate,77,-25; bonus2 bCastrate,79,-25. I'm assuming the number in front of the -25 deals with specific skills, and not a general cast time.

Although I'm not 100% sure. Testing would definitely be the way to go!

They plan on reverting bragi back to how it was though so if holy stick[1] doesn't allow IC with cast reduction gears now, it might after the fix.

I'd say that they would. Have a look at brave battle fist too, 99int/99str IC asuras.

STR + 2, INT + 1
Increases physical attack against Demi human monster by 95%.
Decreases cast time on "Guillotine Fist" by 25%.
Indestructible (except in upgrade attempts).
Decreases cast time on "Guillotine Fist" by 25%.
When attacking, there is a chance to activate for 6 seconds an effect that completely negates the cast time on Guillotine Fist.

Tried this on RMS test server and nope I didn't get IC with the set. Even with Bragi  I had about .5 sec cast time. But that is the default card effects so its not really a good test.
