Cast time = base time * (1 - DEX/150) * (1 - modifiers * 0.01). Assuming no suff.

Where does the increase in cast time occur?

And does it proc with skills like Throw Venom Knife, Shield Boomerang, Shield Chain etc.?

It's a skill called NPC_SLOWCAST which gives the "SLOWCAST" status change. If you start casting and have the status change your cast time is increased. I think it will be applied to the final cast time after the DEX reduction, just like item bonuses and suffragium.

It will proc with reflects and auto-attacks, but because it's a skill it will not proc off another skill use.

unchained-ro

That will go into the "modifiers" part of the cast formula.

We love balance that's why we made Reward Points = Donation Points.<br>Donations will have only official stats.

From what I tested, this works as the opposite of -% cast items. If you've -40% and you get +40%, you will get 0% cast reduce time.

Also, one thing that probably many don't know is that, this skill is always casted from the user of the dagger. If you use plants[at least on the pservers I tried it] and you happen to be far away from them, the skill won't be trigged by them because you're not in the range of the skill.

err thats misleading. the tooth blade slow cast is a large aoe spell cast around YOU. if you use plants and they are too far away you will use slow casting and it wont hit them, but it will hit anything else that happens to be next to you

Triper

The places where I tested/used it, the thing was, if I was out of range of the char the plants hitted, the cast won't be activated, not even on you.

Latin

Erm, I think the visuals only show if you are near a valid target, and it still procs even if the plants is faraway.

Triper

Just tested this on a fresh build of eathena and yeah, it shows the cast being done even far away. The AoE is just the user, not the plants.
