No fast Staff

Hi,

i just wondering, why is there no fast staff at the moment.
There are two hand swords are faster than any staff.

Ok, i know they do much damage, but i would prefer also a faster staff.
If you look to training movies, they are very fast with staffs.
I would love it to play a templar with a good fast staff like 1.4 or 1.5, but with less damage than one with 1.

So what you think, do we don't need a faster staff?

AFAIK, most skills that work with staffs dont take the weapon speed in their attack calculations. But I think, both aspects would be nice to be addressed in some improving way (staff speed and skill variety)

The fastest staff is 1.25 attack per second, which is actually not bad. Find such staff with local attack speed, some attack speed passive and Faster Attack gem and you could be like a martial art monk

Did you ever see a material art monk in action?
Their Staff speed would be like 4.0 :)

i know you can push everything, but you can still push a thwo hand iron sword faster than a wood staff.

They should have a legendary staff with 3 attack speed

so you hit like jackie chan in pirates of the carribean

After seeing one of the Builds of the Week with a attack speed of 3.3 I think 4 would be nearing the limit of light speed.
