Item Clicks for Bards

[Nashoba]

I noticed an issue on my bard, when a buff macro that was working before the new code went live started to crash out her instance of EQ. So I just tested it with a brand new character on a different account and got the same results.

When I click on an item with a cast time on the bard, there is no cast timer window that pops up. There also is no text in any chat window about something being cast. It waits about the cast timers time, then the buff pops up in the buff window.

I noticed this too. I was thinking it was just because I was twisting, but haven't confirmed it. I also noticed that I continue twisting while the cast is going in the background.

I'm going to hop in here and add that I've seen the cast window for Orb of the Crimson Bull do really weird things. When I click it the bar doesn't move at all but rather remains full. After maybe 7 or 8 seconds the cast bar starts to move and acts as if I was casting a 2 second spell, and the Orb fires. I have successfully reproduced this on a second character. I'm using UF and have not tested this with any other client.

Edit: Similar weird behavior can be seen with the healing automaton, it never displays a casting bar.
