Quick question: Does attack speed from various skills/effects stack on top of each other? For example, if a BM used a ghoulish sword (which has quicken on it), is within the range of a RB (heaven's wrath), and just demon sparked, does attack speed dramatically increase to epic proportions? Any help on the subject on the greatly appreciated

    If I remember correctly, the speed effect of ghoulish sword over rides RB if it activates when RB is active. The speed effect of RB over rides demon spark, this one I'm sure of.

    So to answer your question, I don't think any attack speed buff in pw stacks with one another. Now correct me if I'm wrong, I believe the current speed cap is 5 atk/sec (that's after demon spark speed buff). So even if they do, the speed limit cap in pw right now would prevent you from getting, say, 10 atk/sec.

    From what I've experienced, attack speed bonus don't stack. I don't know if Quicken overrides RB, but I do know that RB overrides a lot of things such as Relentless Courage, sparks and bonus auras in Rebirth b:surrender.

    can anyone tell me what the attk speed increase is from QUICKEN when it goes off? IE 1.11 goes to 2.22?? and is it the same for both TT70 ghoulish and FC85 Dimension Breaker?

    Thanks

    Quicken is the equivalent of a 20% increase to attack speed when it goes off, becuase it doesnt stack with other skill based speed buffs it isnt really a hugely useful weapon enhancement

    1.11 > 1.43 with quicken on

    RB overwrites everything. anything which would give m. dmg, p. dmg, channeling, or aps.

    also, damage increase effects dont stack.

    TY michael, one last question. If my math is correct, 20% would bring 1.11 to 1.332, not 1.43. So which is it, does quicken go to 1.43 or does it do 20% as you said?

    Thanks again.

    aps works not by percentages, there are breakpoints for it. u can check it in character calculator how it works, i think its working correctly.
