Channeled skills + Attack Speed

Rogue

Can skills that you convert to a channeled skill still benefit from attack speed? Like the stream of damage gets faster and faster or is attack speed completely moot? I honestly can’t remember. I know for spell channels the cast speed doesn’t do anything as far as I can remember…wondering how it works for ranged / melee channel skills

EDIT: I just noticed that with Rogue’s “Flurry” skill, when you convert it to a channel skill that it is still able to crit and channeled skills aren’t suppose to be able to do so. So attack speed must affect it as well or is this a bug that needs fixing on LE’s end?

Normally no, channelled skills don’t benefit from cast speed, however Flurry (& Warpath) do. Also, the only skills that can’t crit are those with the DoT tag (which flurry doesn’t have).

Not a bug.

Ah damn it, always confuse channel and DoT tags. I actually didn’t know that about Warpath increasing with attack speed…interesting

Yeah, Warpath & Flurry are the only ones that do.
