Hi
I imagine this has been covered a million times before, but i am at work and am worried boss will see me if i take too long on the forums 
AS i understand it the ideal spped for swordsman is 95. A master brawler/master sword has a speed of 80. Therefore a shortfall from the ideal of 15.
If i max FS melee speed this gives me +12. Does this add to my 80 from master meaning i need only a further +3?
Many thanks
Asani

you will hit speed cap with 95 when using a 6,0 sec speed hammer. however most good powerhammers are roughly 5,3 sec, so you should be capped with mbrawler, msword and +12 fs speed

Actually, most of the good hammers are going to have a higher speed in the 6.0 range (Acklay)
Normal hammers will be in the 5.3 Range.
To the original poster:
Buy a +3 so you can cap with an acklay hammer (Assuming you have M.Brawler and FS Melee)

Good question, I had been wondering about this too. With the advent of the FS skills becoming more readily attainable, I made a beeline for the melee speed line myself. However, I also took this to mean that I could retain (once attained, still have some camping to do) Master Ranger and speed cap my M. Swordsman side. This would indicate that I would then need about +8 in SEAs, not too bad to try obtaining from the Aakuan penitentiary proctologists or whatever they're properly called.

Ok, agree with that, just the problem of defining "good", I see in that a hamemr with max damage of 600-650 ... those you can get relatively cheap, no real problem finding a new one when od PH is gone and it does its job well. Anything above 650 max dmage I consider ... well better

Where canI get one of those PH's, the highest ive seen is 580. and the speed was 5.9
also how do you figure out the actual speed of your weapon? whats the equation for it?
What drops the +3's or are they sold anywhere?

The above lick will take you to a calculator that will show you want your speeds are, and what you need to cap.
The Best way to get the attachments is kill either ackluans on Talus, or Night sisters on Dathomier. You should also watch the trade froums for you server. there are ussaly a few up for auction on most servers.
As for the high damage PH's. I know on Radiant and I assume most servers have simmilar stats, the master WS made hammers will have a speed of 5.3 or 5.4 and a max damage of about 469. If you get a 30%+ damage slice these will max out well over 600 damage. And for ultra high damge you can get a hammer make with acklay bone. Be fore warned they are extremly expensive, but with high end bones you can hit 800+ damage. My current acklay hammer is 838 max damage and 5.9speed.
