I've seen the phrase referenced quite a bit in terms of talents, trinkets, and especially in the blue post about the new legendary weapon for healers.

However, what -does- internal cooldown mean? Could someone please explain to me how internal cooldowns work?

Much appreciated!

An internal cooldown is simply a cooldown between instances of a specific effect occurring. This prevents them from being active all the time.
