Dexterity and APS

Hey Guys,

i met a sin, who had nearly the same equip like me. we both had only an armour with intervall -0,05.

My Dexterity is exactly 300 his was only 263

We both attacked a mob with a bow. Strange thing was... it was the same bow... its a quest reward bow, so same stats... really...

Now my question... i attacked more often than he attacked. not doppel as often, but we both count a few times i hit more. Sometimes shot together, but then i shot, before he does...

Does Dexterity influence APS in any way?

    No.

    If he was out of range of a mob and had to run forward to attack while you didn't, you'll get more hits in than he does.

    Also, if he had chill up and you didn't, again, you'll get more hits in than he does.

    Um, if you just measured attacks over a short period of time, a difference in ping could cause it. Or it could be that one of you was tab targetting and/or using hotkeys whereas the other one was clicking the mobs.

    Olbaze said it.

    A thing I noticed for me is that APS seems to decrease if you keep spam hot-keying (pressing multiple times, not holding down) auto attack.

    Pretty sure it can be debatable, but I definitely noticed a decrease in my attack rate when I spam hot-keyed my auto attack on a boss before vs just pressing it once.

    Whenever I'm fighting a boss I use windchild too. I attack faster and the little kid that appears in front of me absorbs some decent damage before he goes down.

    Dude, it's Wind Shield, not Windchild. I don't even have the genie skill and I know that xD

    And he was making a joke about it and did that on purpose.
