Haste (Status Effect)

__TOC__
== Description ==
Haste is a beneficial status effect that increases a character's speed until it wears off or is removed. Benefiting characters experience reduced weapon delay and magic recast timers.
Haste is the direct counterpart to Slow.
March is a similar Song effect bestowed by Bards. It provides the same types of benefits as Haste, and can also be combined with Haste.
== Notes ==
*Haste is calculated as a percentage reduction in weapon delay and magic recast time. That is, with 50% Haste, attacks rounds will occur twice as often. With 66% Haste, attack rounds will occur 3 times as fast.
**Example: a weapon with a delay of 509 normally takes ~8.48 seconds before an attack can be initiated. With +50% Haste, this delay would be treated as 254.5, or ~4.24 seconds of wait before the next attack would occur.
**Example: The White Magic spell Raise has a base recast time of 60 seconds. With +50% Haste, the recast time drops to 30 seconds.
*Haste effects, despite reducing weapon delay, do not reduce TP gained per hit. As a result, Haste accelerates TP gain over time by making hits more frequent but keeping TP/hit the same.
*Haste from equipment (including Catastrophe) caps at 25%.
*Haste gained from magic caps at approximately 43.75%.
*Haste from Job Abilities (Hasso and Desperate Blows) caps at 25%.
*Overall Haste cap is 80%.
*Recast time reduction is capped at 50% from all sources.
*Haste from magic does not reduce recast time while weakened.
== How to remove the effect ==
*This effect can be dispelled.
*Certain sources of Slow have higher priority and can replace Haste effects entirely. (E.g. Slow effects from Spider ability Spider Web, or the spell Slow II.)
:*These stronger effects will also prevent subsequent Haste spells from taking effect.
*Haste effects can be removed manually.
