First off, It is my understanding (don't quote me on this) that the"throw" timer is linked to your weapon speed. I am near master CM,but recently took uprifle, and am currently at rifles 3 in marksman. However, it seems that whenever I throw astim with my rifle equiped, the time from hotkey to heal isVERY long.


So with thatestablished, here is my question:with increased weapon skill (and speed modifier) will I throw faster with a rifle out? Or is this based on the actual weapons speed? Hope someone can help me out!

I'm pretty sure it has to do with your final speed. You will be unable to throw another stim/poison/disease until you are able to fire again. At rifles 3 *shudders in rememberance of pain* you have nearly no speed bonus, and rifles are incredibly slow at lower levels.



To answer your question, it is after the modded weapon speed from skill increases. You still wont be able to throw faster than you would be allowed if you didn't have a weapon out, but I'm sure you knew that.


Hope it helps. Good luck

Workaround for attack speed affecting throw speed is to /peace, throw poison, and then /attack again. Works for using healing stims as well.
