You need to read the section on attack speed buddy before you hurt your head with all them numbers. You have the very basics wrong which is why your shit stinks.

Starting easy, your base speed (bSpd hereafter) is your lvl 1 speed (no mods)...which is wrong as of this posting (0.638 not 0.625 attacks per sec). LEVEL 1 speed! The tooltips in game are almost irrelevant (which is where that 0.625 number is coming from I know). The % per lvl is correct at 2.3 though (bSpd*% = attacks per sec gain).

Now here is the skibby on Ardor, it mulitplies your bonus attack speed just as it says. The only chiviate is that it does count the per lvl gain as a bonus, very small but noticeable at 18. Thus, here is your equation:

AS = bSpd + (% per lvl * lvl + sum(bonus as %'s))*bspd*(1+ardor bonus)

Its rather simple really, it just took a few tests to see what ardor affected and what it didn't. Enjoy
