Breakpoints

Breakpoints are cut-off thresholds for when your “Faster Cast Rate,” “Faster Hit Recovery,” “Faster Block Rate,” and “Increased Rate of Attack” bonuses actually affect your character. This is arguably much more important for Sorceress than any other Class (Cast Rate in particular), as the quicker she is able to cast, the more damage she can deal. Note that the breakpoints for Chain Lightning and Lightning are different from for the Sorceress’s other Skills.
