Haste (buff)

Haste is a buff in Xenoblade Chronicles and Future Connected. It reduces the delay between the user's s as well as making them execute faster, so they attack more often.

Haste is most effective a buff on party members that rely on their auto-attacks. Even a small speed boost can have a great difference in number of crits rolled and talent gauge generation. Almost all enemy arts that grant haste do so to the value of 50%, so their auto-attack delay is halved.

There is a cap on haste at 100%, at which point auto-attacks animate twice as fast and there is no delay at all between them.
