+12% speed or a direct +12 modifier to speed? Recently i heard someone ingame saying that it is only a percentage (Thunderheart himself has said this he claimed). So what is the truth here?


In case of a master brawler/swords:


  • 80 base speed + 3SEA + 12 FS melee speed = 95

  • (80 base speed +3 SEA) * 1,12 = 92,96 = which translates to what? 92 only? In any case, doesn't reach 95

+5 SEA would do the job in case of FS melee speed being only a percentage.

master swords man75 speed /master brawler +5/ FS melee speed +12 / = 92 speed


95 caps an 5.9 hammer so all u need then is +3 or non brawler +8 to cap all weapons

Well, i knew all that mate


I justwant 100% proof (ifthat is even possible?), that FS melee speed is indeed a direct modifier to speed, because if it isn't, +3 SEA is not enough to cap speed in case of mbrawler/mswords.


I admit, most of the threads concerning FS melee speed or capping swordman speed seem to believe, that it is a direct modifier. Still, what was said to me ingame left an uneasy feeling.


Basically, what has Thunderheart or any other dev rerpresentative said about this?

it is

every melee speed box is +3 speed

im brawler with FS +9 with +3 tapes and when i get the last box i cap a 5.9 hammer

use this and and fil in speed 95 with weapon speed 5.9

it caps all moves cuz FS speed comes on top of all melee prof speed

Actually I recall reading somewhere (cant remeber where, so i cant back it up...) that it is infact %....and that the hole enhance thingie is done for the combat revamp thingie. (just like jedi)




Remember ? In the beginning, you only needed a fistfull of mastered professions to unlock. But people were too lazy. Then the number was increased - silently, but people noticed anyway. Yet some were too lazy. Then they were all waiting for p10, because they would get a Jedi for free without no work at all. But they were wrong. And now they are wondering that it didn't get any easier. It's just the same old wolf with a new fur, but even sharper teeth. Yet they close their eyes, hoping for the impossible....

P.S.: One word of advice: The more Jedi, the harder devs will make it for new ones. Caljostro

Not sure if this helps or not. But i tested Melee Speed using a carbine. It is bugged and effects ranged weapons. It is not a percent increase it is the first option you posted. Basically like having +12 in 2H Speed SEA's. The great thing with carbines is that at master our speed is so gimped we fire so slowly it is easy to test this type of thing. 4.0 Carbine ... 2.5 Reload Special ... +60 Speed at master.
