Spell Speed Reduction

[Amaretto08]

It's up to you, but even a 0.1 reduction in the GCD adds up. You'll probably find yourself adding spell speed regardless just because of the way melding works right now. Example: You have an NQ piece of gear with INT+8. Melding more INT caps the stat at INT+12 and you can't add any more INT after that. The HQ version of the same piece of gear would start out at the INT cap of INT+12 and not allow any more INT to be added. So if you followed how that works, you're generally left with spending most of your melds on other stats.

I should also add that the above example implies that yes, even spell speed reduction has a cap. Stat caps are per piece of gear though and the caps are higher for higher item levels.
