In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses attack speed breakpoints and caps in the context of Theory crafting for builds in the game. There are two separate attack speed bonus caps of 100% each, allowing for a total of 300% attack speed. The details of what contributes to these caps are described as somewhat random, with specific effects associated with each cap. The speaker references a shared table detailing various attack speed effects for different classes, mentioning gear attack speed, class-specific effects, and how these factors contribute to the total attack speed bonus. The importance of understanding these mechanics to optimize gear and builds is emphasized.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses different caps for effects in the game, such as Cap one and Cap two. Cap two includes legendary aspects and node effects, while Cap one can lead to exceeding 100% attack speed if not managed properly. The speaker provides examples of classes and their corresponding effects reaching or surpassing the cap, highlighting potential inefficiencies in the system. The speaker expresses a desire for a simpler and more intuitive approach to attack speed bonuses.
00:06:00
In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses breakpoints in attack speeds in a gaming context. Breakpoints are specific attack speed values needed to hit certain frame breakpoints for actions to occur during gameplay. The speaker mentions the significance of reaching these breakpoints for maximizing DPS in the game. They refer to a post by Ava that provides detailed information on these attack speed mechanics and how to test and understand break points for different skills. The speaker also notes that as attack speed increases, the distance between break points becomes larger, potentially resulting in situations where additional attack speed bonuses may not yield any noticeable benefits if they do not reach the next break point. Specific examples and data for skills like rapid fire and blade shift are used to illustrate these concepts.
00:09:00
In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses attack speed breakpoints in the game. They explain how skills have different base attack speeds, affecting the actual attacks per second. The speaker breaks down the math and shows how reaching certain breakpoints can improve DPS by stacking attack speed. They emphasize the importance of these breakpoints as a fundamental game feature, which may not change. The speaker mentions the complexity of calculating these breakpoints for different skills and suggests referring to tables for optimal attack speed stacking for maxing benefits. They conclude that while this information is crucial for serious gamers, it may not be necessary for casual players. Additionally, data on all skills is still being collected and curated by the community.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the importance of respecting attack speed caps in character building. They mention that while current classes and builds may not accurately refer to breakpoint tables, it is crucial to consider attack speed caps when creating characters to avoid potentially missing out on the benefits of certain gear rolls. Emphasizing the need to double-check if the setup is above 100% in cap one, which is easier to reach than cap two, the speaker provides guidance on ensuring compliance with attack speed caps. They suggest referring to a linked post for more detailed information and clarification on attack speed concepts.
