1.0.3, Attack Speed Changes, and Hypocrisy

[Chesspiece_face]

The IAS nerf also hurts struggling/poor players more who aren't able to afford the highest damage weapons and/or primary stat gear.

Oo

Any reasonable inferno stated item that had IAS on it pre-1.03 was a million plus. I've made more gold and real money selling IAS items than anything else. Prior to 1.03 people would sacrifice nearly anything to get an item with decent IAS on it.

Personally I've never bothered to stat for it. Why spend a million plus on one item when I can take a fraction of that money and deck myself out with massive resists and tons of LoH. Economically speaking IAS was almost always the most expensive, over-inflated way to stat up your character.
