The lower the attack speed, the faster the actual speed is. Speed infusion reduces the attack speed number, increasing the speed of attack.

@justsofly: oh shoot. you're right LOL. I don' tknow what I was thinking.

sorry @sufian for the mix up with putting speed 5 on normal

but ya the point still remains unaffected. xD

If you're not using a Fast speed weapon and you don't plan on getting gloves with decent SI, it's excellent. I traded away my emp sword (Normal speed) for shoes and borrowed my friend's Night Raven Wing (+1 speed over emp sword). I was hitting caps with my old weapon and could only manage about 9:30 or so in ranked Dojo; with the faster weapon I could go down to the 9:1xs even when I was hitting only 600-800k per line with it. :V

[quote=chickenpoodl]technically all weapon speed refereces are "minus" because its reducing delays.
slow = 8, 7
normal = 6, 5
fast = 4, 3
faster = 2

most class's weapon booster skills are -2, some are -3
speed infusion is -2
decent speed infusion is -2
some classes have a -1 skill somewhere in 2nd or 3rd job...

but to answer the original question
if you're using a NORMAL or SLOW speed sword, and DO NOT HAVE DECENT SPEED INFUSION, then yes it will benefit you[/quote]

Just thought you should know, you got those number speeds wrong.

It's Slow(8/7)
Normal(6)
Fast(5/4)
Faster(3/2) with 2 being the fastest.

[quote=archersteven]Kaisers have problems with the speed cap, I learned this the hard way after dcing in empress many times. So as long as your boosters don't total past the speed cap it will be useful for you. Otherwise it'll just crash you.[/quote]

do you think, or know if it has something to do with transform?
I haven't heard of that bug before, i'd like to know more.

Mercedes: [i]King's Qualifications (Beginner skill)[/i] = -1

I think transform negates the original weapon booster or something, because when I transform, my giga is a hell of a lot slower lol.
however I haven't been playing a lot recently, nor keeping up with patch/maintenance notices, so there might of been some class changes that i'm not aware of.
but ya according to what you said, then yes it should be faster2 which is the speed cap.

LionHeart Scimitar is normal 6 right? With a Kasiers booster being -2 and from transform stage 2 minus-ing 1 each stage, wouldn't that put it as fast(est?)2, which I believe is the speedcap.

aim for 20+ attack or %boss dmg

Sorry, it is actually +1 attack speed. It's S rank.

Is there something with it (like -1 atk speed, +10att)?

well we already attack fast that but more speed means faster solo time ;D

EDIT: Lol w8 is that making ur speed slower?

if it actually is taking away one attack speed then that is awful

What rank is it?
