Not sure how this affects the equation, but TKAs get a grand total of +115 Speed at master.

Wow. This explains alot. No wonder my 1.5 sword was doing worse than my 2 spd sword. This is a serious issue for fencers. I wish we had a correspondant to help us. If only there were as many fencers as CHs this would be balanced tommorow morning.

From what I've heard... +10, +5, +10 speed modifiers wouldn't be a straight 25% speed decrease, but rather are individually modified speed decreases.


So 10.0spd - 10% -5% -10% instead of 10.0-25%


First would be: 10-10% = 9-5% = 8.55-10% = 7.695


Second would be: 10-25% = 7.5


The first way would mean that +115 speed would do something still. I mean... if it's a straight multiplier, +50 speed would mean that a 2s weapon is capped.
