1) Spellspeed isn't a dumb stat. Its been proven otherwise. With running spellspeed food to get piety, you don't need to have any class stat points in Piety.

2) The discussion was what the most dps was; and if you want the most dps out of your novus, then you run 44 Spellspeed 31 Det. Its a fair point if you want to save money and not use Det IV's (which are getting cheaper by the day, and its stupidly easy to make money in this game), but that still makes no difference to running spellspeed on your novus.

3) I've not got the Chestpiece myself, still doesn't mean spellspeed is a bad stat. You can also run spellspeed (secondary) on the Soldiery Head, Gloves, Feet and Neck. The Crafted Head, Belt and Legs are VERY good options and then you also have the ST items (Head, Gloves, Legs are nice in particular). The crafted jewellery are good choices too.

Someone was asking about the best DPS. If you want to discount a stat because you don't like it or it touched you somewhere bad, then fair enough, but don't go around saying its useless when you are completely incorrect.
