Farming by ppl who are at little to no risk in a dungeon is OK if there is no one there trying to get EXP. I mean, if they are farming they are not lvling. So they make their choices. But PLEASE, if a group shows up and wants to get EXP let em. Make a loot deal or let em take the PH'rs. If however y |

Okay, here we go...
There are only 3 kinds of haste that are stacked:

the haste % isn't how much delay is cut off.. haste % in EQ shows how many more swings you do, 40% haste = swing 40% more often in a given time than without it
hmm to use your math to find delay I guess you could take half of the haste %, then plug it in, will try to explain the logic behind that;

*sighs* So much misinformation and so little time to correct it.
First off, the EQ game engine uses haste as a means to calculate the number of attacks per second. However, many players prefer to look at it as decreased delay. Now the truth is that increased attack speed results in a decrease in |

kruz:
40% haste does not bring your delay down to 10.6 on your fists -- what it does it give you 40% more swings in a given period of time.
To figure out what the delay would be, use this:
Step One - Add 100 to the Haste Percentage.
100 + 40 = 140
Step Two - Divide the previous result |

Folks, only one person so far has even come close to getting haste values correct. You do NOT, as most have stated, simply multiply the haste value by the delay and then subtract. As the only individual with a clue posted, a 100% delay (maximum possible in the game with stacked items and spells) w |

According to spdat.eff, The effect of JBoots is a flat-rate 35% increase in speed. SoW uses the formula of 30+level/2, up to a maximum of 55% at level 50. so a level 9 shaman's sow is slower than jboots, a 10-11 shaman does the same, and any other sow is superior to jboots. SoW also lasts 36 minu |

You'd take this over the Templar bracers? Odd. I'd leave this one to the SKs or pure int casters. Besides, Wis over 200 is now 6pts per so even if that 9wis bracer shoots you over 200, that's still 9x6 more mana. |

Dunno whether that's true or not that he killed Naggy but the technique is called chainpetting (and get that smirk off your face).
