The licensed hotfix overlay lists a 3.0-second Slam cooldown reduction at both ranks; the source author explicitly flags the earlier development-note value of 1.5 seconds at rank 1. This is an unresolved source discrepancy, not an independently verified correction. See [[Project:Talent data#Warrior source conflicts|the source comparison]].
The current licensed 70291 client extraction retains the previous community overlay's 3.0-second Slam cooldown reduction at both ranks. The earlier source annotation contrasted this with a 1.5-second rank-1 reduction in development notes. The source author's new client attribution does not by itself settle that discrepancy or independently verify live behavior.

Improved Slam is a passive talent in the Warrior Arms tree in the Forever beta 1.60.1.70291 source data.

Warrior source history. The prior 70170 snapshot combined client files with community readings of the October 1–2 server hotfix cache. The source author now attributes this tree to client build 70291. That attribution does not independently establish live behavior or resolve the previously recorded source disagreements. See the earlier provenance and source conflicts.

Ranks

Descriptions below preserve the source wording. Rank labels describe the source evidence; they are not independent gameplay verification.

Rank Effect Evidence
1 Reduces the global cooldown and cast time of your Slam ability by 0.25 sec. In addition, Slam no longer interrupts or delays your melee swing and Slam's cooldown is reduced by 3.0 sec. Source reports beta-client data
2 Reduces the global cooldown and cast time of your Slam ability by 0.50 sec. In addition, Slam no longer interrupts or delays your melee swing and Slam's cooldown is reduced by 3.0 sec. Source reports beta-client data

Source discrepancy

The current licensed 70291 client extraction retains the previous community overlay's 3.0-second Slam cooldown reduction at both ranks. The earlier source annotation contrasted this with a 1.5-second rank-1 reduction in development notes. The source author's new client attribution does not by itself settle that discrepancy or independently verify live behavior. See the source comparison.
