Before you reply, you might like to know that when I tested it by timing I got an average gcd of just over 1.6 seconds.

I spammed an ability for 10 consecutive gcds and timed how long this took. The results of 3 separate tests were:

16.38 seconds for 10 gcds
16.40 seconds, and
16.00 seconds.

So that gives an average time 48.78 seconds / 30 gcds = 1.63 seconds per gcd.

That result is a long way away from 1.1 seconds.

Test it yourself. It's easy to do.

Still looks like 1.1 to me

That's 9 gcds because the 10th heal occurs at the start of the 10th gcd, which is the end of the 9th gcd. The in-game clock also has a large rounding-off error of up to a second. So it isn't very reliable for this sort of testing unless you can give a larger sample size. Could you perform more tests.

The gcd is 1.5 seconds. Test it yourself if you are unsure.

You are right that it would be best practice to test for myself but are you saying that it has changed since Azarael posted about it in topics like this one?

Been testing this further. With a RP was able to use GG 23 (+1) times in 31 seconds. That would give a gcd of 1.35 seconds. I wonder if latency affects this issue.

Yep. You are averaging 1.2 seconds. I can't get anything better than 1.35 seconds for the same ability.

My ping is around 330 ms. So I wonder if latency affects it. I have to spam-click the hotkey to get the shortest gcd time. Otherwise, it seems to lag at the end of gcds and has trouble recognising whether the ability is queued.
