    Also, skill speed affects speed of autoattacks, which are 25-30% of your damage.
    (sigh) exactly. Same in the same time. But the point of increased speed is that you do more skills faster, more damage should mean you kill the boss faster but tp doesn't naturally recover faster. So less ticks, less tp when you reach 0 tp. Paeon/goad is needed or sit there waiting negating the effects (the extra damage) overall for the entire boss fight (has to be a boss fight cause that's the only time tp really plays a factor)
    Technically speaking if you finish a fight at the same time with boosted Ss what benefit did you get? None, you finished at the same time, you didn't finish any faster.

    And ss does not affect autoattacks. Attack speed does (grease lightning and huton)

    Oh wait are you thinking increased skill speed affects invigorate? It doesn't, skill speed only affects global cooldowns, not off global. You can view your action's recasts and test for yourself.

    The problem with skillspeed is simple:

    Open fight -> dps until ~540-570TP -> invigorate -> keep on dpsing until invigorate is up -> invigorate

    Ideal situation you would be just about there on the second invigorate... maybe dip to 400 but not lower(for me if invigorate is not on CD after the first use either enough breaks in fights or doing something wrong).

    With skillspeed what happens is the same until first invigorate... by the time you are on the second invigorate you would be possibly at 200tp or worse already starved.

    It also depends a lot on the fight of course. Certain mechanics and so on. I loved getting conflaged in t5 since it was free TP regen.
