    • Tier 2 (advanced): 0.8-1.8 casts/hr (slower, more powerful)
    • Tier 3 (master): 0.5-0.75 casts/hr (slow but devastating)
    • Tier 4 (legendary): 0.4-0.5 casts/hr (very slow, extremely powerful)

    • If insufficient mana, cast progress is paused (not lost)
  • Verified DPS/casts per hour display:
    • DPS = damagePerCast × castsPerSecond
    • Casts per second = castSpeed × HOURS_PER_TICK / (TICK_MS / 1000)
