Hi. I started a bear character yesterday after looking all guides here. I realized that when I fire the Vengeful Slash, the cooldown timer starts also for Super Mega Slash and teh converse (I didn't tried the Crippling, because I put no point in it).
It is really like this? The three slash cannot be fired in a row, but only one at time? Why should I invest skill points in all three if they do almost the same damage? Or it is a glitch of GCD? (all of you experienced bears would already noted and signalled...)

It's not just the slashes, it's GCD.
When you use one skill, all skills have a short cooldown, that's what Global Cooldown means. :)
After trying the skills out since the GCD was implemented, I've noticed that 2 slashes are enough (SMS and Vengeful) to keep on using them. The 3rd slash (Crippling) is barely used since, and it has the longest slash cooldown (6 seconds).

It should be a bug of CGD on my Galaxy Tab. The effect of GCD on other skills was half a second (less now), while SMS and Vengeful go in cooldown together and remains in that state for about 5 sec, when all other skill are available from long. Later I open a bug note with the video.
Thanks for the answer!

Oh, in that case that definitely sounds like a bug.
Slashes only do their cooldowns individually, and only the GCD actually makes the rest cooldown for the short period.
Hopefully a dev catches this or someone can help, since I don't use an Android. :p

I just tried it, on a Galaxy Tab too, it looks normal. Maybe the last patch fixed it?

I did some experiment, adding also Crippling Slash to the sequence... And I found I mapped SMS twice !!! Thank you for support, it wasn't a noob-bear question, it was actually a noob-epic-fail at all :o

Wow I didn't know that you can map one spell twice! Now I feel noob...

Some ppl put a spell twice just to not have an empty spot ( most bears don't even have restore, lol)

Well I have a free spot, but I really would like to map rage twice, if I could stack it this way! :-) Just dreaming...
