Changes

Faster casting rate is found on a variety of equipment. This stat is most important for spell-casters, for obvious reasons. All spells are affected by this value, but note that some spells have a 1 second, or longer, delay between uses. For those spells, FCR equipment will lower the frames required for the actual casting animation, but the 1 second delay will still run (for 25 frames) after each cast.

This counter registers how long your character takes to recover from a hard hit; one powerful enough to cause the hit recovery animation to trigger. Various skills and spell effects can cause all hits to trigger this animation, while they are in effect.
