    Hi there! I've recently returned for the wynncraft update, and I was wondering if anybody had information on attack speed modifiers as they pertain to spell damage. For example in the recent damage calculation guide, attack speed greatly modifies the damage of your spells. However, it does not talk about attack speed modifiers, such as Tisaun's Valour. Do they also affect spell damage? Or do they only affect melee attack speed? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    The attack speed identification does not affect spell damage.

    It can, however, make spell spamming easier to execute, as the animation for your weapon will move faster therefore avoiding the spell timer bug with slow weapon animations. On slower weapons, giving them attack speed can make spamming spells easier and will be quite effective due to the already high damage slower weapons naturally have. The more spells the better!

    So it increases the cast rate of spells, but not the damage itself? Damn :/

    Thanks though

    It does, but it shouldn't. It's just that, currently, spells won't execute if the animation from a melee attack is still running, so the attack speed identification is somewhat of a fix for it. On weapons normal speed and above, you can cast spells as fast as you can click, but on slower weapons, sometimes your spells won't work when you perform the click combination for them because of the slower melee animation.

    Of course, none of this matters for archer either, because they use right click to attack.

    Fair enough. I still personally find it odd that a modification for attack speed doesn't affect spell damage, but it makes sense from a balance perspective
