Atk. Spd.

Atk. Spd. (Attack Speed, Attack Speed; Russian localization: Atk. Spd.) is how often your character attacks within 500 milliseconds. With an attack speed of 250 we get 250/500 = 0.5 hits per second, i.e. the character attacks the target once every two seconds.

For bows, the formula for shots per second is a bit different: (Atk.Spd./1000)*(1500/Weapon Delay), where Weapon Delay is the moment when the red shot bar reaches the middle (for fast bows) or 2/3, and we can already run and use skills, but can't shoot again yet.

For fast bows Weapon Delay = 1500, for slow ones = 820.

This bar can be reduced only by SA Quick Recovery, i.e. without an attack speed buff a fast bow shoots slower, under a medium buff they shoot about the same, and under a full buff a fast bow shoots much faster than a slow one.

Attack speed is calculated by the formula: Atk. Spd = ( Weapon Atk.Spd. * DEX Modifier * Skill Bonus Multiper * Armor Set Bonus * Epic Jewelry Bonus * SA Bonus ) + Skill Bonus Value + Weapon Bonus
