I'm REALLTY having fun right now using Splinters with IAS. I think I'm at 2.23 AS right now, and when used in conjunction with various snares, fears, and CC's, I'm totally having fun (especially with multiplayer). I do have 2 questions though:
1.) When is IAS no longer worth stacking for Splinters? I mean, due to the abilites animation and mechanics, does there come a time where, say an AS of (insert number here) is enough? I swear to god I shoot them so fast it's like a stream; it's fucking halarious.
2.) Are there any pieces of gear that either knockback or stun? I was thinking about stacking these affixes as well to see how they work.
FYI, if you look at my spec, take note that I replaced the BRit passive with BMed (didn't update) and I switched to the enchantress. Otherwise he's tits. Also, an ability like Splinters with IAS works great with the FetishPsy passive: I usually have at least 3-6 active at any given time (it's mor like 11.3% chance per second becasue of the IAS).
There is a lot of equipment that will stun or snare, but what most people go with is freeze. You can use the Azurewraith sword (albeit it has terrible dps) and there are amulets, belts, etc that have chance to freeze on them. There was a "popular" freeze build that worked with Acid Cloud that had way more chances to freeze because the damage was spread out over several "hits" that would all have a chance to trigger the freeze. Good luck, glad you're having fun.
PS I doubt there's any such thing as "too much IAS" as even if you get to a point where your animation is your limiting factor, the IAS still increases your paper DPS which is used for calculations for many abilities.

Thanks in advance. Theorycraft welcome.
