Attack speed IA with SW wep

So I just recently rolled +1 attack speed IA as a DB and I'm wondering if that's even useful for me since I'm currently using a SW weapon in which the attack speed is faster. If I'm not mistaken faster is at 3, with booster -2 and MPE potion -1 I should reach the attack speed cap of 0 without the help of IA, no? I just tested it myself and I don't feel a difference but I'm not sure since I don't use the MPE potion often enough.

Anyways I have buff duration in my 3rd line in which is enough to keep permanent FC if I sudden raid once (in which I always do). If I'm not mistaken what preferable first line I should attempt for my IA?

You should re-roll your inner ability and use the 5th job Dsi matrix. With a SW dagger all you need to reach 0 is booster and a MPE green pot to bypass lv 1. With a Fafnir dagger you would also need to add Dsi to the mix to hit lv 0 speed. The Lv1>0 change will always require a MPE green. Dsi from 5th job matrix is very easy to get. As far as IA goes. I personally use a 30% crit rate (main line), +20 luk (second line) and 13% buff duration (third line). Because some bosses simply don't allow you to evade and get your 100% crit rate buff. Plus 100% crit is just really useful all around.

ehh i would just get dsi. TBH the diff b/t att speed 1 and 0 is not too huge. Youre better off going for more stats.

If it really is at Faster attack speed, then you just need the MPE potion to hit the hard cap. With that said, you can shoot for boss damage for your first IA line. In fact, if you have the Mechanic card, you basically can keep FC up 100% of the time. I do recommend rolling for higher BD for your second/third line since the invincibility you get from casting it is invaluable against certain bosses.
