    Magic Recast and Gear Haste

    We all know that gear hast caps at, iirc, 256/1024, so roughly a bit over ~25% gear haste.
    Any additional haste gear added over the 256 cap will produce no effect on your weapon swing speed.

    But what happens on recast timers? If I put say 30% gear haste, will my spell recasts benefit from that additional ~5% or will they too stop getting reduction once the ~25% cap has been reached?

    The effect on recast timers caps at 25% gear Haste too. Also, 256/1024 is precisely 25% gear Haste.

    Yes, I meant 256/1024 > displayed 25% on item description.
    Altough that's confusing and I guess it would have been more correct to say: displayed 25% < 256/1024

    Thanks Byrth!
