Weapon speed question

[Breiya]

I was wondering what difference does it make if you use 2 weapons with different speeds?  I just recently switched from no weapons (str line) to using weapons so I'm kinda new to all the weapon info.I got the Mouthmusher and Closing Time and used them for a few levels, but now I wanna try out the Knuckle Dusters with one of the others I have already.  I noticed the Knuckle Dusters have a speed of 2.0 and the others are both 1.6 sec.  Will that make any difference?  Or a big noticeable one?  I'm not really a min/maxer with stats but I don't want to hurt my dps that much if I switch.  So would it be okay or would it be better to stick with my 2 that are the same speed for now?Thanks <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />

Mind you there are 4 CA's that need to go back to back......Stun/100 Hand Series and the Knock Down /Stomp. Don't ovet think the speed thing of weapons. Just pause a half sec before the next CA and you will be fine. The weapons peed changes with buffs also so typing "/weapon" will give you the true delays with buffs.

Oh, okay thanks for the info.  I thought I read once that it was important to have weapons that were the same speed...but I'm glad to know it's not that big of a deal <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />
