Assassin Traps - Laying/Casting Speed

Just before path 2.3, the speed at which assassin could set down traps or cast fire blast was governed by Attack Speed and not Faster Cast Rate. I’m not sure why this was the case, but ok that’s fine. Now neither Attack Speed or FCR affects the speed at which traps can be cast, or it’s been capped. This is annoying since the whole point of the character is to lay down traps fast so that you can use other skills.

Please change it back so that we may farm items that actually make a difference in casting speed for this versatile character.

OMG that’s terrible, no wander myass drops traps so slow.

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Hi Leeuw123,

The assassin traps have always been affected by attack speed and not cast rate. In the previous patch, there was a bug with attack speed that allowed several classes to breach into new breakpoints.

The way it is currently is the way it has always been. What you are describing was technically a bug. With that said, I do agree that it felt better to play with the higher breakpoints.
