At master swordsman, a swordsman has +75 2Hand Weapon speed. How many skill tapes will I need to purchase before I am capped for speed?

with 95 2h speed you will hit once in second if weapon speed is 6.1(acklay hammer)or lower.

You can (theoretically) obtain up to 117 speed (Mswordsman/Mbrawler+25 in tapes+FS melee speed tree) but that is max, since you can anything over +25 in tapes doesn't work.
But you don't need anything over +95, unless you have a really slow hammer.

100 is the speed cap. Every weapon will hit/fire once a second with 100 speed mod for that weapon

Good crafters should get PH's up to 5.9 speed .

But that is un-needed for a capped swordsman... would be much wiser to spend remaining points on Dmg, range or HAM

100 speed= 100%
100 - (your speed mod) = (your speed multiplier)
so if you have 75 speed... 100 - 75 = 25% (25% is your multiplier to reduce time cost for your attacks)
Let's say your hammer is 5.9 speed, or hits a basic attack every 5.9 seconds. The time multiplier for hit3 is 3.3 seconds.
5.9 x 3.3 = 19.47 seconds (this is how often you would swing hit3with no mods)
19.47 x 25% or 19.47 x 0.25 = 4.8 seconds (this is how often you would hit with hit3 with 75 speed, pretty slow with no extra speed mods)
Head hit 3 is only a 2.5 time multiplier. So you would do that every 3.7 seconds.
You would need 93 speed to cap head hit 3 to 1 secondwith your 5.9 speed hammer.
The cheapest way, swordsman 75, masterbrawler +5, force melee speed +12, one cheap clothing attachment +1.

So for me only having 75 speed mod, getting speed slices on my sycthes isnt that bad? only bad if you speed capped is this correct (basing this on that I normally use head hit 3). I alsways thought speed slices were a waste of weapon so I put my weapons stats into the calsulator and I get a higher dps with my speed sliced weapons than my higher sliced damage. Is this correct or am I talking crap.
