Some [[skill]]s apply a delay when used: while the delay is active neither that skill nor any other skill with a delay can be used. Nothing reduces the length of these delays but, since they begin at the action frame (the frame in the attack or casting animation in which the action is actually executed), increasing attack speed or cast rate will slightly reduce the interval between actions since the action frame will occur earlier in the animation: interval = action frame + delay.

In LoD all delays are global, and there is no mechanic of local delays. The latter was introduced in D2R patch 2.4[https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/diablo2/23788293/diablo-ii-resurrected-patch-2-4-ladder-now-live#class], and most delays were converted into local delays. It had the most impact on the [[Elemental]] Fire Druids.

This 11 frame delay does not interrupt an attack sequence if Chance to Cast is applied during that sequence. The delay can be applied from the action frame of any individual attack in the sequence, so if it's applied by an attack early in the sequence then the delay may end before that sequence ends. If multiple attacks in a sequence apply Chance to Cast, the delay is applied from the last attack in the sequence to apply it.
