Cast Speed for Spells Cast by Totem - Clarification Please

Hi :)

My setup is - Spell Totem | Incinerate | Support Gems

I ran some Numbers to see how Spell Damage and Cast Speed would push my Damage and came to the Conclusion
45.5dps per 1% Cast Speed
14.5 Dps per 1% X Damage
of Course both rely on each other but this is just scratching on the Surface.

Furthermore i wanted to see if Cast Speed exclusively for totems would get reduced by the 30% less modifier of Spell Totem or if it would apply in full strength.
I skilled a "4% Cast Speed for Spells Cast by totems" node and to my Surpirse my dps did not change at all.

Is this a Bug? I'm using a totem which casts a Spell so it kinda should apply ?!?
Does Cast speed for totems only apply to Totems with native skills like "Shockwave Totem" ?
FYI i used the Node near Totemic Mastery for this test.

/edit I relogged to make sure its no one time visual bug

It's a tooltip bug, the bonus works fine.

"% Cast Speed for Spells Cast by totems" is pretty much the same as taking regular cast speed, it just won't affect your non-totem spells. It affects any skill that the totem casts, not just natives.
Wish the armchair developers would go back to developing armchairs.

So it will be reduced by the 30% less modifier of Spell totem just like regular cast speed
Kinda? If that's how you want to interpret multiplicative modifiers then sure.
