GCD off certain abilities

[lilsabin]

How about making some defensive abilities of off Global CoolDown(1 sec i think) , for exemple : shield of aqshy , runic shield , ritual of innervation etc. since , they are situational... and to balance this , give those abilities (the ones that will be removed of the GCD ) a longer cooldown

Can't do this - client determines whether an ability is on the GCD or not.

Even if you could do it, I'd say no thanks. That's one of the worst aspect introduced to WoW, and it completely ruined PvP. Every one and their mom in that game now have defensive cooldowns off the GCD.

Skill Grudge Unleashed was reported by myself as starting GCD some months ago. It was fixed to no GCD as it was in original.

So... how was it fixed if it was client deciding?

I thought you knew what I meant.

What I mean is that skills which do not trigger the GCD are configured not to display the GCD on the client. Trying to remove the GCD from a skill on the server's side accomplishes nothing, because the client will still trigger the GCD when you use the skill, and block your next cast.

Feeling dumb now. Thank you for clarification!
