I'm kind of ashamed that it took me that long to realize but I've seen a ton of Staff Evie's doing the same thing I used to do. Continuously holding focus to charge is a waste of time. If you've ever noticed, there's a delay after you fully charge a bar before charging starts on the next bar. You can completely skip this delay by letting go of focus once you hit the bar and immediately holding focus again. This will allow you to cast spells in a fraction of the time. I can now freeze a boss with ice spear and cast blind arrow right after it unfreezes.
For mouse users : Hold Right Click until the bar fills -> Let go of right click -> Immediately hold again -> Repeat
Be warned that the third bar (charging ice spear to blind arrow) is a lot slower and if you let go too early you will lose every charge.

I find it more helpful to continue holding the Right Mouse Button, but instead of releasing it to start the next level of focus to charge, click the Left Mouse Button.
Try it out for yourself--it's quite helpful!

Wow that is a lot better. I thought that would simply cast magic arrow XD.

I can't get this to work. It does seem to be faster than just holding RMB, but clicking RMB again feels a LOT faster.

I feel that holding RMB then clicking LMB to start the next charge is faster, but I've no clue. I haven't actually timed, so my opinion on the matter isn't really valid.

its faster by about .5 a second each level which if you think about it is quite a bit when it only takes 2-4 seconds to charge
