Talk:Use time

?
Terraria uses  for rating a weapon's speed in the tooltip, rather than. I think we're missing something. --Lunboks 10:36, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
 * useAnimation is probably the time it takes for the animation to conclude. A slow broadsword takes a while to swing through its entire range, therefore it's considered "slow", and that is a useful statistic; though it'll be closely related to Use Time, since for most weapons you can't use it again before the previous animation concluded. The description here might be off if you're correct that the game uses that stat instead when calculating the item speed, though I don't think it will usually make much difference.

Times are off
Most of the swords say 100 use time, but there's no way that's true. Just guessing here, but it should be closer to 19 for muramasa and light's bane, 25 for phaseblade, and I know for absolutely sure that a light's bane, phaseblade and fiery greatsword have different swing rates. I'd measure them more accurately if I had an auto clicker that could work with terraria. The 100's should be changed to question marks, if nothing else. Aru 21:22, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
