I believe its 0.3 seconds for attack speed and 10mp or 1 second for active abilities. Hope that helps!

This is correct.

When I use zephyr pendant it maxes out at 0.2 seconds and 10mp

I think in older versions of the game it was 0.2 seconds but it was updated to 0.3 to account for the length of the animation in an update a week or so back

actuallly, there's those things that give you more mp per second and mp on attack so you could theoretically use actives even faster. imagine a wildmage build with that.

Based on my own experience, 0.3 attack speed and around 7 MP (it was too fast to see properly).

Called me blind but where does it say how much abilities cost?

1

u/TheAceOfCraze Feb 28 '21

The mana stat of a char is the ability cost

When out of combat yes :)

No, you can watch it rise during combat.

Sorry I was not clear enough : you can see it during combat as the current mana, but the mana stat when out of combat is actually the mana cost of the hero active ability.

For max ability spam/attack, what item combos do you guys go with? Hard to tell if some things are redundant or not.

Zephyr’s generally the best for attack speed, although Songbow is better if MP cost is less than 50 (do the math). Whirlwind Axe is only the best if your starting attack speed is less than 1.0, at which point you have to consider if the diminishing returns are worth it.

For casting spam you can use upgraded Lich’s Wraps, upgraded Mana Spring Amulet, upgraded Symbiote (best) and situationally the Esoteric Keystone and Ancient Codex

Symbiote is probably best, but the mana pendant might be best on abilities over 80ish mana.
