Cooldown Reduction Calculator

Calculate the remaining cooldown after percentage and flat reductions.

About the Cooldown Reduction Calculator

Cooldown reduction changes how often an action can be used during a fixed period.

How to use it

  1. Enter the original cooldown in seconds.
  2. Enter the percentage reduction.
  3. Optionally subtract a flat number of seconds, then calculate.

Calculation order

This calculator applies the percentage reduction first, then subtracts the flat reduction: final cooldown = base × (1 - percentage) - flat reduction.

Example

A 10-second cooldown reduced by 20%, then by 1 additional second, becomes 7 seconds and allows about 8.57 uses per minute.

Notes

Games may cap cooldown reduction or use a different order of operations. Compare the formula with the rules of the specific game.
