there are 5 lv on the recast upgrade
2 sec for every min per lv

so in theory you can shorten (maxed out)
1 min ability to 50sec
3min ability to 2:30
5min to 4:10
10min to 8:20

8:20 doesnt seem so worth it.

Faster cure cast seems like where its at.

Regen bonus would be nice. bumping Regen III to 30hp per tick would be awesome haha.

I would probably upgrade Convert recast timer but for whm would go with the Cure speed.

I wonder if Cure clogs + cure merit upgrade stack? (and fastcast from /rdm even?)

If so that would be pretty hot.

Anyone checked for double attack? Probably one percent per bonush, which is pretty lame

Ya it's 1% per point, for a max of 5%.

Personnaly, i'll put most of my points in Ice/Wind/Earth Accuracy. Easier to land Gravity/Silence/Paralyse/Slow? {Yes, please}

Meditate is a 3min ability, but each upgrade shortens recast by 10 seconds. So that's 2:10 if I pump all my merits into it.

That's not what the description says, and I've also tested it. My meditate is now 2:50

You can only get a max of five points total into your job-specific merit abilities. So you'd have to either choose cure time or regen to bring to five. There could also be a restriction to the number of times you can upgrade one thing, so you might not be able to bring one of them to five, but only three, then choose something else to bring to two for a total of five points in that specific merit point region (i.e. White Mage abilities).
