Soul Seeker Unaffected By Attack Speed
Okay, I had a hunch before, but now I'm completely sure.
The Runes of Swiftness increase attack speed by +2, and it really shows whenever you use any skill... except Soul Seeker.
lf> this to at least make it on to the Known Issues list.

[quote=butterfly24]I'm still mad that we were lowered to 2 orbs, I mean even buffing them back up to 3 would've been nice :C
and well, a random question if I may: Should I split the Trinity damage? I have only 95k attack range and I'm nowhere close to capping...[/quote]
It's still a good damage boost (1600% vs. 950% x 2), so yup.

[quote=Takeback3r]Not like you'll use soul seeker very much ever after you get soul seeker expertise, right? Unless you're trying to poke a boss to see when DR/wep cancel ends i guess but that's easily timed anyway.[/quote]
Probably. I do cap with Trinity (split damage) on lower-tier bosses, and the time it takes to kill is just a bit slower than Soul Seeker (though I'm not close to capping with Soul Seeker yet).
Soul Seeker's range is handy, though.
i think that trinity after that 1.2.508 patch is comming out is going to be the new skill to use on bosses. It gets a huge boost +20mil cap damage + 25%chance to proc ss. Trinity is godly with atk speed buffs!

[quote=canerias]It actually started when soul seeker cast delay was reduced from 990ms to 810ms, which was the patch that made GMS AB to have the same skill numbers as KMS.[/quote]
Oh. Oops.
Still, it's unreasonable for one skill to not be affected even though the ridiculously overpowered version was affected by attack speed.

I first noticed this after we got 4-orb Soul Seeker taken away (attack speed buffs worked fine with that version of Soul Seeker).[/quote]

[quote=canerias]It doesnt affect the cast delay of Soul Seeker, AFAIK it also happens on KMS so its probably intended.[/quote]
That's lame.
[quote=KamikazeDes]I've noticed that too. It's obviously because Angelic Buster is so OP and needs to be nerfed after being buffed.

@canerias: That so? Could've sworn someone on that site we can't mention said something about it. Lemme ask.
I could've sworn that MPE Green Potion makes Soul Seeker cast faster...? I'm not too sure on this anymore...
[quote=lulzace]It affects the cast speed. The actual orb movment is a constant iirc.[/quote]
