Shael rune in caster equipment

[sirwhere]

Hi,

Maybe others have suggested this already, but I think that when the Shael "speedster" rune is socketed into caster equipment, it should give 10% faster cast rate, instead of 20% ias.

I mean.. who's gonna use a sorceress orb to whack monsters?? Those things can't even get damage modifiers, right? :afro:

Shael can be inserted into armors for 20%FHR, which is quite important in PvP.

[sirwhere]

Yeah, I know. I was just mentioning that 20% ias in wands is kinda pointless :)

It should be...
Cast weapons (staff, wand, orb): 10% faster cast rate
Other items: as it is.

So then, don't put a sheal rune in wands?... There are plenty of runes/jewels that help casters out...

It'd throw off FCR balance.
As it is, the best breakpoints are hard to achieve unless you work at it.
If anyone could put a Shael into their Eschutas, it'd give the same FCR as wizardspike, and thus be moderately easier to bump into 200%.

Having shael runes give FCR instead of IAS could also mess up some melee things. There are...
-Ribcracker Quarterstaff
-Wands with tons of elemental damage (used vs oblivion knights so as not to pwn oneself, also against Phys Immunes)
-probably something else I forgot to mention

EDIT - Nevermind, nevermind.

shael in weps adds ias (increased attack spead)
different from cast rate

i got a occy for cheap that already had shael in it
so u used cube with hel and tp scroll to clean it
then added a 5/4 cold die :cool:

Shael also works for assassin casting traps. I double-shaeled my ali baba for my jackasin.

In older patches, all Lightning skills worked based on IAS.
Sorcs would carry fast weapons with a ton of Shaels in them.
