By default with +0 Weapon Speed, [[Weapons#Sword|swords]] and [[Weapons#Dagger|daggers]] take 400 milliseconds<ref name="defaultSpeed" /> per action and [[Weapons#Club|clubs]] take 720 milliseconds<ref name="baseClubSpeed" /> per action. [[Weapons#Slingshot|Slingshots]] take 300 milliseconds<ref name="GetRequiredChargeTime" /> per action and cannot be modified.

Each point of Weapon Speed reduces the time taken by 40 milliseconds,<ref name="millisecondsPerSpeedPoint" /> meaning the maximum effective buff is +10.

Each point of Weapon Speed reduces the time taken by 40 milliseconds,<ref name="millisecondsPerSpeedPoint" /> meaning the maximum effective buff is +10 for swords and daggers. This also means that Weapon Speed has a significantly smaller effect on clubs because the total increase in damage per second (when striking continuously) is smaller as a percentage: a sword or dagger with +1 Weapon Speed is capable of 11% more damage per second, whereas a club with +1 Weapon Speed is only capable of 6% more damage per second. This difference is further magnified as the buff increases.

The player's movement speed buff (described below) is also applied to weapons,<ref name="setFarmerAnimating" /> and effectively stacks with the Weapon Speed buff. For example, a weapon with speed +2 would be just as fast as a weapon with speed +1 while under the effects of [[Coffee]] for an additional +1.
