Thread: 1.18 patch Attack Speed Slower?

I would have pefered for it to be slightly faster cause pug looks so slow compared to it now, but whatever. I'm wondering how delay will be working in this game. I remember playing DRK in ffxi and the delay between attacks was likr 6 seconds and that was awful. Just looking at the video it seems all classes have different speeds. Sword was about 2 secs, h2h was about 1.5, and lance was about 3 seconds. I hope we don't see any weapons past 4 seconds though. I wonder if weapon delay will be displayed on the weapon stats now? I wished they just kept the delay the same across all weapons cause it would be no different DPS wise between DD than it is now.

Well depends how many skills they end up giving you and how TP is calculated. Have to try it before making initial judgement.

If say a slow great sword gives you 400 TP per hit... that's would really balance out attack speed.
