Attack delay

Attack delay is the minimum time (in milliseconds) that must pass after an attack before any action can be performed.

The lower your attack speed, the faster you are. Each weapon has its own base attack delay value.

The table below lists various modifiers that affect attack delay. Bonuses reduce delay (good), while penalties increase it (bad).
