Default Autocast - multiple gems

If you have 2 autocast gems that cast within a certain period of one another (about a second or so) when the first one casts, the second one casts during the global cooldown, before the cooldown finishes. Not sure if that's just because the client doesn't recognize the cooldown is over yet or what, but figured I'd point that out. Not a huge deal because it's less than a second, unless of course you're a really fast killer.

I see this too, but I'm pretty sure it's because the client generally updates every second, unless actions are happening, then it does it asap or something(aka RT's old boss videos when heals were 1 tick/second Kitty would repeatedly click his face and sometimes get faster than 1s heal ticks). So you see 1 gem cast, 1 second later, another gem casts, but if you get the 3rd one lined up, it's closer to 2 seconds(the full CD), instead of both being the 1.5s apart like they are supposed to be. But this is just me speculating on what I see.

Yeah that makes sense, might be it. Course it means autocasters get a bonus to casting speed because of that.

Doesn't actually give a boost to casting speed...you just see 1 second and 2 second(3 total) instead of 1.5 seconds and 1.5 seconds (still 3s total)
