I wouldn't worry about it though .... The talent calculaters in the official sites are known to be extremely inaccurate.

Where did you see the talent build?
I'm checking out the talent build over at
mmo-champion
, and it's still instant-cast.
Again, I would not trust the ones at the official site, as they're updated manually instead of being mined, and they're frequently inaccurate.

there is a plus side to deep freeze being 1.5 sec cast. if it was instant cast you would be wasting a second of stun time on your global cooldown. plus with all of the stun duration reduction in wotlk you would be looking at maybe a 3 sec window to do damage. This would make the deep freeze, ice lance, cold snap, deep freeze frostbolt icelance combo almost impossible to accomplish.so the cast time does have a purpose.

But the downside being no shatter-combo...

no shatter combo? you dont consider deep freeze, ice lance, cold snap, deep freeze frostbolt icelance a shatter combo? they are frozen the entire time they are stunned for deepfreeze.

I plan to team with a resto shaman in wotlk. Add heroism and icy veins at the same time and i get a .75 sec deep freeze. very hard for someone to interrupt a spell casting that fast. i will be left with a some global cooldown but seems worth it.

Actually, no. A Shatter-Combo is when you squeeze in an instant cast just as your cast Frostbolt so that both will benefit from Shatter.
What you're describing is just making use of the Shatter mechanic, not combo per se. Also, why wouldn't you use Frostbolt instead of Icelance after the first deep freeze?
EDIT: Never mind me. I've no idea why the heck I thought we were discussing about Fingers of Frost when it's patently obvious you're talking about Deep Freeze. Apologies.

Aparantly, on the Wotlk talent trees on Wow-europe, Deep freeze has the cast time back.. kind of disappointing, was looking forward to it being instant. Ah well, at least it still has the huge damage.
not to break you dream....but it did have the cast time for some time now....they did jsut "test" it if it will be to OP with instant
