Sasore GM: Attack Speed Bug?

[ledatta]

I am quite confused with Attack speed values.

For example , dagger 700 base Atk spd. If I have Berserker, Lvl 6 Berserk Buff, 100% attack speed increase buff, the value becomes 350, Im ok with this, I get it.

But when it becomes level 7, 120%, the value becomes 312. I am not that good in math, I know. Or could there be a bug?

Thanks for replies

Hello ledatta !

Regarding your question:

1) Attack Speed Info:
-> The number you see in the <Character Information> Window is actually the Attack Delay: It is the number of milliseconds counted between every two attacks.

Basic Example:

a) I have a Berserker with the following stat (Attack Speed = Attack Delay):



b) If i use my Ultimate lvl7 (Gigantic Storm):



The new "attack speed" will be:

If you want do double check this for your case:

Formula:

Attack Delay = D / (1 + Total Attack Speed Percent)
Where: D = weapon base attack delay in milliseconds (bow is 1000, dagger is 700, club is 900 etc...)

Polearm = 1600
Berserk Ulti (lvl7) = 100% =1,00

Attack Delay = 1600 / (1 + 1,00) = 1600 / 2 = 800

Finally: To make it easier to understand the results of the formula one can take 1000/Y to end up with roughly the amount of attacks/second:

At 800 that will be: 1000/800 = 1,25 attacks/second

Note: The formula is asymptotic meaning you cannot calculate your attack speed without considering EVERY percentage-wise boost you have (pet, guarder, weapon, buffs, etc.)
