Canceling Frostbolt

[Boxy213]

Is it worth canceling a frostbolt that I just started casting(<.4)secs when a BF procs with 2pc?

The golden rule of playing a caster is the "ABC" rule. Always. Be. Casting.

No, it is not worth cancelling your frostbolt.

Ah, okay thank you! I just figured that with the 20% extra on the FFB/IL/FB it wouldn't be worth the possibility of having it override the BF.

EDIT: Nevermind

[MisterMine]

considering the cast time of frostbolt is nearly the same as gcd... nope, dont even think of it

Even if u cancel your frostbolt within 0.00000001 sec because you have amazingly impossible reaction time, the GCD still owns you.

Casting frostbolt triggers a GCD, even if you stop casting immediately. Thats however much time your GCD is lost in damage. If you sit around doing nothing for an entire second, well, thats a bit of damage lost.

So, long story short, never, EVER cancel any spell, ever, unless you will die otherwise. And as a mage, you shouldn't have to worry about movement affecting casting.
