I'm just curious about whether or not there are any armors that boost the attack speed of all weapons OTHER than the Drake Scale Armor and Drake Scale Helm. I don't want to forfeit my increased attack speed especially since I like my Hunting Blade, but for attacks I can't avoid below Emberlight I find myself taking at least 10 bars of damage from EVERYTHING. Can someone fill me in, please?
Attack Speed Equipment other than the Drake Scale set?
The Dragon Scale Helm has a Sword Attack Speed: Ultra bonus on it. The mail doesn't though for some reason. :/
I just checked both my Drake Scale Mail and Helm, and they both have "Sword Attack Speed: High" bonuses. I'm not sure where you're getting the "Ultra" from.
Krys said Dragon Scale Helm, not Drake Scale. Dragon Scale Helm is the final upgrade from Drake Scale to Wyvern Scale.
Well, apparently I misread then.
On the bright side though, that did answer my question. I'll have to be on the lookout for the recipes needed for the Dragon Scale set then. Thanks a bunch.
Look out for Wyvern first. It goes Drake - Wyvern - Dragon. You need a flame soul material for the dragon!
Shoooot, that seems to be one of the two materials neither myself nor my guildmates can find (the other is a Meteor Mote).
*checks the Wiki*
I need to get the Flame Soul from Darkfang Scorchers (gremlins with flamethrowers). Great... does anyone know where Meteor Motes can found from?
Meteor Motes are currently nowhere to be found by and Spiral Knight player so far? Unless somebody found one in the past few hours :P
I'm not sure attack speed is really worth it. I had an attack speed: high armor and haven't really noticed too much of a difference.
To me it is very much worth it. I'm using a sword with a base speed of a lil over half the bar filled. Without speed bonus it hits a lot slower. I can tell very easily by my ability to finish the 3-hit combo before an enemy can hit me. With full speed bonus I can very easily, partial makes it tighter but doable, none makes it nearly impossible.
I'm not sure though if speed bonuses work with a bonus calculated in +x% or with a fixed amount, but my guess goes towards percentages. Swords with a lower base speed seem to benefit less from it?
Really? I used to like to boost my effectiveness with the Khorovod by using two Quick Strike Modules, the Quickstrike Buckler, and the Drake Scale set, but anymore I really can't see it making any difference. Which is crazy really, because that's a whole lot of speed increase stuff.
OOOOOH
I have a flame soul!!!!!!
Do you happen to need it for any of your own recipes, Kymroi? if not I might buy it off of you.
And my guild has the theory that the enemy Mecha Knights can drop Meteor Motes. We don't know for sure though.
Theories are no good :P it can be any monster we haven't frequently met so far. It can even be Rocket Puppies, since they use quite the high-tech explosives in their rockets. Can't really just tell for sure till you find one.
You could try the Swiftstrike Buckler or the Attack Speed Trinkets from the guy in the Guildhall.
But I think that's it in terms Sword Speed Buffs.
