Projectile Speed

[Hakkt]

Hi,

I found a swiftstrike bow, it comes with projectile speed +200%. This offsets the 10% loss of attack speed from Precise Strikes. Is there something else changed by tripling the projectile speed?

Thanks in advance

Projectile speed is not the same as combat speed.

Projectile (arrow or slingstone .. and even certain spell) dont go in an instant to your target, If I remember right they go at 10 times the speed of movement. Which mean, if you are far away enough you can dodge them when you see them coming in your turn.
With the bow, the projectile will go at 12 time the movement speed, so a bit faster and harder to dodge (Snake for example love to dodge projectile)
But you will still fire at -10% speed. Which mean basically every ten turn you lose an attack whatever the speed of projectile is
