Well as many of us already know, FCT in RO works a bit strangely. There are three noticeable issues:
1. FCT percentage reduction will not stack, instead it only takes the highest reduction from all gears/skills.
Example: Radius and Sacrament will not stack and instead only Sacrament's 50% reduction is used.
How it should be: They will stack and will lead to 65%+ reduction(15% or more from Radius, 50% from Sacrament)
2. FCT percentage and time reduction stack, but in unfavorable way.
Example: For skill Comet(3 sec fix cast time), Temporal Dex Boots and Nidhoggur Shadow Card yield to a total of 1.25 sec FCT((3 - 0.5) * 0.5)
How it should be: They stack in favorable way, so the above scenario gives 1 sec FCT(3 * 0.5 - 0.5)
3. FCT reduction gears/cards are insufficient, they come as either MVP cards that are near impossible to get, or gears that yield only 3-7% reduction.
Example: Fenrir/Nidhoggur Shadow Card are nice but the price is in tens of billions, gears like Buwaya Agimat Tattoo wont reduce FCT enough to be valuable.
How it should be: Give us more choices for FCT reduction gears/cards, especially the ones for the middle-tier.
I think the introduction of FCT itself is a horrible idea, but now that it is already there and the mistake cannot be easily overturned, they should at least make it easier for FCT reduction to work. What do you think?
