    I think you're wrong actually. I haven't actually tested mine personally, but I've heard from lots of people who have tested it that it grants Fast Cast.

    Other items in the game actually grant effects too when it says "Enhances".

    its gives you fast cast.

    thus enhancing your 0Fastcast to 1Fastcast.

    i dunno why they worded it that way but its easy to test. It brings CureIII recast down 1 second on brd/whm

    It's fast cast 1. If you're not subbing rdm, it's useless because fast cast 1 pretty much blows and is really unnoticable.

    RDMsj+Warlock'sMantle+Rostrum Pumps = FastCastIV

    i.e. You're at RDM casting speed. Well, if they don't add both AF pieces with + on it.

    some people in my LS said it gives it, others say it didnt. 1 example someone said is if they use a suppamimi earring, it doesnt give u dual wield even though it enhances it.

    That's a stupid example. If you are able to dual wield, it will be enhanced. If you are able to cast, it will be enhanced.

    for saying it gives u Fast cast because it enhances it, how is that different from getting dual wield if it enhances it?

    I guess Stoneskin's recast is too fast for FC1 to affect it.

    Just tried it on Reraise, 1 minute recast:

    Sorcerer's Sabots: 1:00
    Rostrum Pumps: 0:59

    Not really a huge difference /shrug. But still gives it.

    Take a look at the recast timer and at the casting speed.

    Most people that play a Mage job will be able to notice a spell of theirs casting even just .5 seconds faster than normal.

    Rostrum Pumps work without RDM sj, but the benefit is small and meaningless.

    it's noticable with /whm, and not matter what Rostum>>>Sorcerer's Sabbots.

    How the hell do you justify 1 int and 1 second of your recast over 5 Conserve MP?
