After some repeated de-quipping, re-quipping and rebuilding actions one credit at a time, I think I might have unglitched it.
My image above was apparently useless because what was occuring was the distance and cast time in the image above were for some reason not casting as said. For instance, where it said 2.8sec cast time, the action might actually take 4 seconds (not due to lag) and the distance would cut down to only 25 meters or so.
Perhaps I just didn't have a good grasp on how malus works, but the funny thing is I've changed pretty much NOTHING and the "problem" seems to be gone. I'm wearing the same armor, jewelry and amps as I was before and even using the same skills and now it seems I don't have the annoying cast times and distance limitations anymore that caused me to take my hiatus from the game.
Fellow players in game seem to want to call it an equipment malus glitch. I don't know if anyone else had the same experience as me, but it's apparently not the first malus glitch to occur, according to other players.
