So my friend was telling me in game that there is no point in me getting the phase 2 "melee speed" branch. This will be my 7th unlock (since i waited a phase to get this) and my friend tells me that he wants to be a MLS so he is capped on melee speed with MLS, so there is no point in him getting the FS branch melee speed.
...well i was under the impression that even as a maxed profession, take MLS for instance, you still had room to add +25 to speed. Am i mistaken?
So in fact i would be able to have MLS + my 12 additional melee speed from my FS branch, correct?
Can anyone clarify this for me?

My understanding is that you don't necessarily need those FS boxes to cap out on speed and accuracy, UNDER THE CURRENT SYSTEM. But, they keep changing the rules of this game, it's a moving target, and on top of that, they really don't tell you what the new rules really are. If you don't get those boxes and then they realize that hey, those boxes should make a difference, and they then change the rules again, you are screwed.

The answer is that there is no hard cap on speed like there used to be so you can keep adding speed mod to decrease your speed. However, the formula is diminishing, and adding further speed over, say 100-120, makes very little effect.
The math says that if you increase your speed mod from 125 up to 150 you will only gain around 2% speed/dps, which isn't all that much. Needless to say, adding a further +12 would hardly be noticed.
however if you ever wish to make the template 0404 sabers or something, then the extra +12 will make real difference

yes i agree if you have a 0404 LS temp or somethign similar, the melee speed FS branch will make a big dirrecence. But if you are a MLS then the +12 that you get for the FS branch will be noticed very little, unless you are MLS have the FS speed branch and have +25 general melee speed, and +25 speed of whatever type of saber you use then yes there will be a big enough differance.
Plus the Force speed in Enhancer 4000 tree helps a bit to. I believe, not sure though, the the adv force speed that adds 20.00 to combat speed is like addign +20 to your saber speed.
