Ever since the release of Orlo, the attack speed stat has been converted into a percentage. But what exactly do the numbers mean? Many people are confused about it and I thought I would clarify things.


Every weapon has a base attack speed , it is displayed next to the attack power stat. There are 6 values of base attack speed: Slow -2, Slow -1, Normal, Fast +1, Fast+2, Fast+3.

This value does not display in your stats window, you can still have 0% attack speed with a slow -2 and fast + 3 weapon.



The value in your character stats determines how many times faster than normal your base attack speed is.

But what is the difference between the base attack speeds? Here are the hidden values at 0%.


Melee Weapons

Axes
Slow -1: 38.1 hits per minute or 1 hit every 1.57 seconds

Staves, Dual Swords, Two Handed Swords
Normal: 41.6 hits per minute or 1 hit every 1.44 seconds


Spears, One handed Blunt Weapons
Fast + 1: 42.5 hits per minute or 1 hit every 1.41 seconds


Katars, One Handed Swords
Fast + 2: 46.8 hits per minute or 1 hit every 1.28 seconds



Ranged Weapons


Launchers
Slow -2: 27.7 hits per minute or 1 hit every 2.17 seconds


Wands, Guns, Bows, Crossbows
Fast + 1: 34 hits per minute or 1 hit every 1.76 seconds


Six Stick Bow Gun
Fast +3: 39.5 hits per minute or 1 hit every 1.52 seconds



There is some variation between attacks however. Non ranged weapons have 3 different melee animations which have slightly different speeds.


*These values were derived from testing and human error does occur, so they may not be 100% accurate to what the game client's values actually are.



Ranged weapons, are for some reason slower than melee weapons, despite the fact that they may have equivalent base attack speeds in the description. This is applies to attacking at full range and at point blank range.



Now, these values portray what your attack speed will be at 0 percent, but what about when you have more than that? From here it is simple, just multiply the number by your base attack speed value. Remember, 0% is 1.0.

ie: In your stats window 100% attack speed = 2x your base
200% attack speed = 3x your base
300% attack speed = 4x your base


A katar raider with 0% attack speed will hit as fast as a launcher bourg with 68.9%.
A gun bourg with 300% attack speed will hit as fast as a spear champ with 220%.


What does this all mean and how will it help you? I don't know, you might not care, but it's nice to see how things compare.

No idea why ranged weapons are slower. The weapons are grouped with other weapons of the same attack speed. Which katars and one handed swords both have the same base attack speed.

ranged weapons are slower because if you base it to a real life thing you have to pull back on the string let go then pull out another arrow..

You don't have to reload wands. And the guns in game don't necesarily have to be reloaded after one shot.

Off topic time


-Imagine...
You know how in movies / cartoons how the devil / demon befriends a person on earth and uses them and slowly turns them bad...

Well i think someone (seb) should make a story about a visitor (the chosen one) who just appeared into the world of rose and starts his journey to find where he comes from, when he is befriended by a old man that wouldn't hurt a fly, a man by the name of icephish. This icephish taught the visitor the knowledge of rose, knowlegde that a common visitor couldn't possibly know. Blah blah blah as the story goes on the visitor starts to question how icephish knows this knowledge, the story then continues to the point where icephish the brittle old man that looks like he couldn't fight a 6 year old child reveals that he is in fact hebarn the god. Thats all i got, people can put their own spin on this and change it :P

I retested this and editted values to hopefully be more accurate. Testing was done by hitting a stationary target 50 times with each weapon. The testing was recorded in fraps to get a more accurate reading.

This value does *not* display in your stats window, you can still have 0% attack speed with a slow -2 and fast + 3 weapon.

right?

The Attack Speed that is refereed to in the character statistic window can be more properly called as "Attack Speed Increase", as the "attack speed" of the weapons themselves, in the traditional sense (how fast a character attacks, the number used for basic DPS calculation), is the "Slow -2 through Fast +3" in game.

I thought higher attack speed means less accuracy like in majority of other mmo's
