I was pretty certain that was the case. I've attempted to explain why that is a waste of talent points, but there is no talking to these guys. Guess I can just sit back and laugh.

Under haste effects, your shot time is sped up making it impossible (in the majority of cases) to fit 2 specials in between autos. The same reason fully hasted BM hunters use a 1:1 cycle. There are...
