Quick update: As of 2.4 the attack speed/rare tome bug still appears to be in effect (timed them, I got 11 shots off in 15.84 seconds with 3-way staff and no speed upgrades, 15.63 with 1 upgrade, and 15.62 seconds with 2 upgrades) Was just using a stop watch so the differences are likely due to my reaction time.

Also, have not fought it today, but bleed was REALLY OP on the splitting boss yesterday, as the bleed was inherited when it split. After the first split I was usually beating the boss in about 5-10 seconds when I had Bleeding. Seems like the bleed should at LEAST be divided among them if not reset completely upon splitting.

Thought I had fixed this bug... Well, i'll test it here again. I think there's some other variable besides the tome.

About the bleeding, hadn't thought about that, thanks :)

I can't say there ISN'T another factor, but every time I have had 2+ tomes (I have tested up to 5 now) the common speed boost has done nothing, and every time I tested 0-1 tome it increased the speed.

Ok, I just tested time for attacks for 0 and 1 tome, 0-3 upgrades, time for 10 shots, upgrades are 15% attack speed:

Time % of Base

No upgrades: 14.18s 100

0 Tomes:

1 Upgrade: 12.11s 85.4

2 Upgrades: 10.22s 72.1

3 Upgrades: 8.72s 61.5

1 Tome:

1 Upgrade: 13.03s 91.9

2 Upgrades: 12.30s 86.7

3 Upgrades: 11.14s 78.6

So it looks like instead of increasing the effect by 50%, the tome is DECREASING the attack speed bonus by 50%. So once I get 2 tomes, it is decreasing the effect by 100%, or no effect at all.

Just for further clarification, the 0 tome 1 upgrade had an additional card as my rare, and 1 common damage upgrade then 1 attack speed upgrade. The 1 tome 1 upgrade value was a tome as my rare, and the common attack speed boost as my only other upgrade.
