The change id like to see with SS ias is reduce the breakpoints by 10.. then a lot more weapons can hit 4 and 5 frame. Then the -10 weps can hit 4 frames too.

IAS reverted

The previous logic for shapeshifting attack speed has been restored. The new logic remains in place, and whichever resulting calculation is faster is the one that will be used in an attack.
Developer Comments: It was not our intent to nerf Werebear and Werewolf as a result of our changes to attack speed. Our end goal is to allow the player to fully realize the fantasy of a fast Werewolf or a slower but hard-hitting Werebear. We are evaluating what the best solution for this is, but in the meantime, our hope is by utilizing both systems and always choosing the fastest speed calculation, we get the best of both worlds where it is a buff in some situations and a status-quo in others

“Hey we don’t know how This game works. The ias calculation was to hard for us to understand, so we just made a new one. Instead of looking up how it is calculated the last 20 years, we just assumed it was to hard to understand. While we don’t agree that the old way is good, we are adding it back into the game to save face and make it appear we know what we are doing”

Yea. This is the way when I hit some dirty bugs and don’t want to spend time debugging, then I just work around it in this hacky way, with a TODO comment “address the root cause in the future “

Well at least now it is only as bad as it is today lol, but no 3 FPA nor passive FRW is still bad, given other classes buffs

I think at least GM melee, druid will be slightly better due to AR buff

ya the ar is really not much though. besides that also rabies got slightly buffed by poison creeper synergy. still overall very underwhelming since shapeshifting was annoounced to receive a buff at the first place
