Sarashi...

You know the guy that mentioned double attack has a point. Now there is one thing i would like to know. With a 248 delay weapon you say you hit every 3.7 seccons no? Well when do the 3.7 seconds start to count? From the moment you start to swing your sword or the moment you actually hit the mob?
If the timer starts to count from the moment you start to swing your sword and double attac kicks in then the it will take less time for you to start swinging your sword again. Therefore a WAR/NIN with double attack kicking in could have more benefit of a 1% haste.

I'm not sure about what happens with delay when double attack kicks in. If a MNK/WAR does 4 hits in a row (having DA kick in in both punches), does his next round of punches take the same time to start again or is the time diff betwen the previous 4 hits and the next round of hits shorter?

I have a couple of questions regarding Sarashi speedbelt and suoppunani(sp).
So its confirmed speedbelt is better than sarashi.
Now what aobut Earing+sarashi, wouldnt that make your dualwield +2. So would having both of those be better than a speedbelt or does speedbelt still give more haste?

definately shorter, the timer starts counting down when you launch your first attack (first fist, swing.. etc) and it will continue counting even if double attack goes off (you will notice with 2 hand weapons, your swing motion swings slightly faster) hence i sometimes see myself go on a string of attacks with the +0 delay cestis and haste spell (hit hit hit hit kick, new set of attacks again after like.. 0.5secs) . Hope that helps

With that being said. Then that is why apple pie would get less benefit from that belt than a job that has double attack or tripple atack.
