Reduces both the Cast Time and the Recast Time of the spell. Fast Cast gear MUST remain equipped to gain the Recast Time effect
Fast Cast recast reduction is calculated first. Then the reduced recast value is reduced further by haste gear. See Talk:Fast Cast for testing details.
Keep in mind that Cast Time used here means the amount of time for the spell progress bar to reach 75%. Since the calculation is a multiplication, for someone with Fast Cast 1 the spell goes off at 75% * (1 - 0.1) = 67.5%.

Please note that while Blue Mage was originally capable of acquiring the full benefits of Fast Cast, there is presumably a bug currently within the game that causes BLU's Fast Cast to grant only half of the previous and standard Fast Cast I bonus.

The following Corsair roll to get this trait for party members within area of effect:
All jobs within area of effect party will receive Fast Cast.

Values may not be exact, but within 1% of to these.
Please see the Phantom Roll page for additional information.
