Character's Weapon Speed

A character's weapon speed is used to calculate the rate of attacks a player makes. It is based on the dex bonus and the total character load based on Carrying_load and total load being carried. The minimum weapon speed for a character is 0.05.

Combat general description

 Characters Attack Speed (attacks per second) = ((1 + Dex Bonus) - (Weapon Speed / 20.0) + (Speed Bonus / 10.0) - ((Player's Current Carried Load/Player's Maximum Carry Capacity) x 0.2)) x 8.5 (server tick rate)

For example a weapon with weapon speed 8 and damage 8, on a character with 20 Dex and carrying %50 of capacity load with no +speed =

 Characters Attack Speed (attacks per second) = ((1 + 3) - (8 / 20.0) + (0 / 10.0) - ((0.5 x 0.2)) x 8 (server tick rate)
 Characters Attack Speed (attacks per second) = (4 - 0.4 + 0 - .1) x 8.5 (server tick rate)
 Characters Attack Speed (attacks per second) = 29.75
