In regards to dagger attacking speeds

So I'm pretty ignorant on the topic of attack speeds for daggers and what is most optimal.

Right now I currently have a Fafnir which is fast(4). Now I know using booster will give me - 2 attacking speed and will bring me to the cap of fast(2). Using a Green MPE potion will then break that cap and bring me to fast(1). Now my question is, what if I have the +1 attack speed IA (which I do). Does this affect the order in which I have to activate the MPE for optimal effect?

Also, if I were to obtain Decent SI, would that benefit me in any way (I've heard there is a hard cap of fast(0))? If so, could someone please tell me the order in which I should buff/activate the MPE potion.

I've seen older threads before, but I never really understood what I should be aiming for.

Thanks in advanced!

@Lamato 50% ? Woww I only have 25% right now Transpose the fafnir to SW so you have a fast[er] att speed

Yeah, I was thinking about that. Sadly, I'm still mentally scarred from buying Miracle Circs and I don't have the will power to farm Honor. Makes me kind of sad seeing as I rolled a 50% buff duration while trying for attack speed. I'm just going to keep it this way for a while.

[quote=Lamato]Hm, okay. Thanks for the fast replies, guys!

I guess I can give up on my DSI project then xD[/quote]

[quote=powerguy121]You can't get any faster than fafnir + dsi + green mpe. If you get +1 attack speed, you don't need to use DSI. fafnir + dsi + +1 attack speed+green mpe is the same attacking speed.[/quote]

This, and to answer your first question; it does not matter in which order you activate your buffs/MPE.
