The attack speed displayed by the game doesn't really give enough information about the actual speed at which attacks are occurring. The game actually specifies speed as the number of frames of animation it takes to complete the attack. The game runs at 25 frames per second (at least the logic does), therefore, as an example, a 10 frame attack would translate to 2.5 attacks per second.<br>

*Find Weapon Speed Modifier of your weapon and table for your attack and weapon.

Because of this discreet nature of speed, there isn't a one to one correspondence between the increased attack speed (IAS) percentage and the effective speed increase. The tables below, often referred to as breakpoints, show at what percentage of IAS gives a change in attack speed.

*Consult relevant WSM sub-column in IAS column to find target break-point.

'''{{EIAS|eias=&Delta;EIAS}}'''
 +
*Consult &Delta;EIAS column to find target break-point, then apply relevant modifiers:

 +
|}
 +
*Consult [[EIAS_Conversion|&Delta;EIAS conversion table]] to find corresponding IAS.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
*For the slowest break-points, use TitanSeal's [http://diablo3.ingame.de/tips/calcs/speedcalc_titanseal/speedcalc_english.php Attack Speed Calculator].
