pretty much the diablo 2 cooldown spells are normally heavy hitting skills that require you to watch the full animation of the spell before you can cast the same spell again
so you cant spam orb or blizzard at 200 fcr
also in diablo 2 there are 210 skills all up across all 7 characters (30 ea) and only about 5 of those skills have cooldowns and they are hardly noticeable
i think cool downs were implemented in diablo 2 to nerf certain skills and who ever made diablo 3 thought cooldowns would be a fun gameplay mechanic :zzz:
in diablo 2 there is method to the madness, diablo 3 is pure madness with no method


sorry my post wasn't clear. i know how d2 spells work.

i'm asking what information was given out about new cooldown system and how is it different?

hard to think about how that applies to pvp yet, but if it's for empowered forms, barb warcries, shit like that - wouldn't be the worst thing

i agree some things should have cool downs but it should be a hidden game mechanic for certain skills and the cooldown times should not vary depending on what gear you have
diablo should be about choosing what skill or spell to use & when to use it strategically for maximum effect
diablo 2 has mana to regulate how much of whatever spell we can cast. stronger spells = more mana cost
cooldowns are 90% unnecessary and seem to be key to diablo 3 gameplay

Damage and gold inflation in diablo 3 sucks. I hope this will not be repeated again in Diablo 4
