    Max channeling? 100%. Unless of course you mean minimum channeling. In which case I think it is possible to get 0%

    with apoths, skills, and other such time-limited effects, you can temporarily eliminate channeling altogether.

    with -chan gear, stuff whose effects last as long as you keep wearing it --- i've heard tell that the cumulative total effect is limited to 90% or so. i doubt too many bother spending the cash it'd take to approach it, though.

    Not sure what the cap is on channeling, but it's possible to get over -100%

    Belt - 18%
    Necklace - 18%
    2 Rings - 36%
    2nd Cast Nirvana Glaive with 2x Stone of Savants - 19%
    rank 8 top - 6%
    Nirvana legs - 3%
    Warsoul of Heaven - 3%
    TT99 AA Sleeves and boots - 9%
    Level 6 tome - 2%
    Lunar cape - 6%

    Total = -120% channeling

    Though -18% ornaments are possible, I have yet to see one.

    You can never completely get rid of channeling, there will always be some. I've heard that its just capped at -90% (which would make sense), but I've never tested.

    From what I've heard, though never tested it personally the cap is 99% chan and that if you reach 100 it nocks you down to 90%.

    From what I know, -18% sleeves should also be possible to get.
    And even if you can get -100%, you still can't get rid of the casting time.
    My sig is gone cus lol b:bye

    i don't care how epic 5APS is, there is nothing more epic to watch than a high -chan wiz blazing away...ijs, thats really sexy.
    Things said during a Twizted faction PK session:
    Slayer_of_Souls: you guys are such suck ups. none of you have attacked twid.
    Twiddzly(fac leader): no, sere killed me already.
    Slayer_of_Souls: he's out there waiting for us, isn't he. i'm gonna die.
    Sereneai: b:sin why don't you come find out.
    Kinglkaruga: you go first dule.

    -chan = more spells/minute = more mana usage = lol

    no it doesn't mean more mana usage
    example :
    it will take u the same number if hit to kill a mob no mater whats ur channeling is n that mean same amount of mana (u will just be killing faster n using mana faster thats y it appears this way)

    I've heard that there's not TOO much of a point in getting a ton of -chan because the skills won't load. I've noticed that if I spam IH, a lot of the IHs will complete channeling time (1 second) and then not cast at all. I think it's due to some sort of lag, but it's what happens when I hold down the IH button, which happens frequently enough.

    So, I'm not too sure that -chan is the greatest thing ever for magic classes 'cause if the skills won't cast/lag then what's the point?

    GMS WHY DON'T YOU BREAK 5APS TOO SINCE YOU BROKE OUR -CHAN?!

    Casters don't get bloodpaint. So they don't need to attack faster.

    oh im glad im not the only one that noticed that. ive seen it several times on my own cleric when i switch to the channel gear i got (15%) and after i awhile of stacking it will start to fail cast. this makes me wonder if there is a cap on exactly how many IH stacks that can be on a single char. this bout the only thing i can think of so idk x.x

    I notice the fail cast phenomenon on veno, so I doubt it's related to a stack limit. Even going from a -12% weapon to Melodic Prophecy, I still get it (-48% with pataka). Overall DPS still appears to improve with more channeling even with this problem. I'm happy playing at -48, and don't feel limited by it in anything PvE.

    Same happened to me quite a bit at -48% or so, not nearly as often around 30% though.
