so I just bought a pair of legendary boots with movement speed and attack speed + int.
before i had these boots:
NOW i have these:
when i equipped them, i lost about 1k dps. my question is: how the hell is that even possible? yes, of course the new boots have 50 int less, BUT they have 13% attack speed, which should easily out"dps" the lost int.
When i replaced my one ring which didnt have any IAS bonus with one that has, i gained about 2k dps, although the new ring also did have less int.
So is IAS on boots bugged or am i missing something here?
Increase attack speed is a weapon modifier Attack speed increased by is an armor modifier, this is a bug that armor comes with weapon modiifiers, the boots do not have attack damage that it can modify so it doesn't give you any bonuses. I have heard talk they will be patching this soon to fix it but yeah that's why you're not getting the attack speed bonus.
You got a bad pair of boots. Don't worry they should be fixed by blizzard in the near future. There are two different modifiers, the one you got just happened to be the type that doesn't actually work. Here's a picture showing the difference between two pairs of boots. You want the "Attack Speed Increased"
