Someone told that the cooldowns in this game is actually rounded. Is this true?

[Pacifien]

Huh. Good question. But when you get a cooldown down to something like 1.4 seconds, would you really notice the difference between that and a cooldown of 1? Could ask a developer, though.

Bump for epic question.

I don't think so. I just don't think you can tell the difference between 1.46 seconds and 1.5

Whether the difference is easily noticable or not, it would still be nice to know. It would be great if someone did some actual testing.

I doubt it WTF would be the point of selling a 5% cooldown helmet or with some classes making you choose between a 9% or 15% cooldown bonus if their rounded anyway:huh:

I did some testing (watched some old fraps files). It's very hard to get the exact data. You can look at the moment the quickbar flickers or the moment Shep starts to glow using biotics. But the results are pretty clear - they work like the in game description.

I actually did some testing also and from what I observed cooldowns are not rounded. Whoever told me it was is a liar. xP lol

Ok, at least we have that problem cleared out. For some reason Champion and Destroyer's cooldowns barely made a difference for me.

Bringing up this question again, as it doesn't seem to be answered?

Mainly because I'm going through a vanguard run and am trying to figure out if the extra 5% cooldown via the helmet is worth it.

With the Archon Visor, Champion and the Biotic cooldown upgrade, I'm looking at -40% cooldown. Not rounded that removes 2.4 seconds from the 6 second charge cooldown.

Without the Archon Visor, that places the overall cooldown at -35% wich is 1.9 seconds off the 6 second charge cooldown.

So, if there is rounding, then the Visor isn't worth the trouble as both situations only yield a 2 second advantage. If there isn't rounding, then the visor is probably worth it for the extra half second off it provides.

I thought i'd read a dev. saying that the fractions were indeed rounded, but I couldn't find it in the search.

Any new/old/verified thoughts on the subject?

Cooldowns are not rounded.
I did this test awhile back to test if GSB is affected by adept passive's cooldown, and the results are exactly what you would expect if you do the maths (with no rounding).
