Recast of Light/Dark Arts Spells?

Just tested the "Light Arts and Dark Arts spells" part of the main page. (all testing done with a stripped 75SCH/37WAR Hume Male to avoid any kind of Fast Cast):
Without Grimore merits:
Cure: 3 sec
Cure II: 3 sec
Cure III: 4 sec
Cure IV: 7 sec
Protect IV: 4 sec
Klimaform: 2:41

With Grimore Merit level 1:
Cure: 3 sec
Cure II: 3 sec
Cure III: 4 sec
Cure IV: 7 sec
Protect IV: 4 sec
Klimaform: 2:41

Since this is just a level 1 merit in the category, it might be a smaller percent, or only seeing 2 second recast down after 5/5 merits, but to me it looks doubtful. I put a Verification tag on the main page; if someone has more robust meriting/testing please post it here. --Priestbilly 03:04, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Even the smallest percentage probably could be seen because of the amount of time it takes for Klimaform to cool down. Even by just your Dark Arts reduction, it's still 161 second recast, of which even a 1% reduction could be seen. I doubt the second part of the effect listed has any merit. --Khellendros 00:55, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
