Haste QuestionFollow

#1 Feb 17 2004 at 12:09 PM Rating: Decent
Hello all,
Maybe this question has been asked before but I could not find the answer. I have Silver Chitin hand wraps. I have been told that they have a 21% haste factor. If I purchase another haste item such as Black Sash belt item (forget correct name) will the second item stack with the first? How do haste items work exactly and where do find what the percentages are? Sorry about so many questions but only been playing for 4 months and getting into deeper stuff. Thank you

They do not. You may have on you at one time:
One item haste
One normal haste spell/song effect (inc weapon procs, equipment clickies)
One "overhaste" such as some high level bard songs

You may occassionally see what appears to be haste spells stacking due to secondary effects (+STR, +DEX, etc) which do stack. But haste stacks as I described above and if you wear two haste items, only the best haste is in effect. If you have two haste spells on you, only the best haste is in effect (and stacking with your best item haste).

Your best way of determining an items haste is to use Lucy. Enter in the item in question and look at the "level of effect". Add one to that number and you have your haste percentage. For example, a Cloak of Flames shows an effect level of 35. 35+1 = 36% haste.
