i just read the faq and im still a little confused about whether master fencer is speed capped or not. im currently working my way up from novice fencer. last nite i looted a 1-hand speed 6 tape and wonder if i even need this if i plan to master fencer or would it be more valuable to someone who only has a few of the fencer trees.


thx for your help

The servers are limited to one attack per second per person. Therefore all weapons cannot go below 1 sec per attack no matter what your weapon speed skill.


For us this means we attack once a second with every one handed weapon made with a delay less than 4.

Anybody wanna speculate if we could effectively double our attack speed, i.e. one attack per second per weapon, with dual weild? I would be ever so pleased, plus it would give us some kind of reason to have additional speed.

Actually i believe if your master fencer you can weild a weapon with up to a 7.0 speed (though by saying delay you may have been speaking of the specials themselves not the weapon) This is also what makes riflemen so good, thy have the same speed bonus at master that we get thus making a 7.3 T21 with Heavy AP able to be shot at essentially 1.3 speed.

It is my firm believe that a pistoleer should be at the speed cap w/o having to take the BH pistols line but currently its not set up that way sadly.

thx for the help guys


so do masters still add speed tapes to help with delays from specials ?


and also wouldnt this be a good tape for someone only using a few of the defensive brances of the fencer tree ?

master fencer isn't speed capped, but it may as well be right now with teh formula made. at 100 you are capped that is the cap, however it takes over a 4 weapon to break out speed caps if memory serves correct.

Actually I'm reffering to 4second delay on weapon, with all specials. In order to ensure to hit every second with all specials the weapon cannot be slower than 4.0
