Build Role

Quick Hand speeds the Active Reload animation. Usable on any ranged rotation that relies on manual reloading rather than waiting for Passive Reload, especially Musket boss rotations.

Math Example

A Musket Active Reload of 5 seconds at rank 0 becomes 3.75 seconds at rank 3 Quick Hand (+25% faster). Over a 60-second boss phase that normally fits 10 shots, the faster reload fits 12 shots, a 20% uplift in shots-per-fight.

Notes

• Does not affect Passive Reload, which ticks automatically during melee or other non-firing actions. Use Planning Ahead for Passive Reload scaling.

• Strongest on Musket (slowest native reload) and weakest on Pistol (fast native reload).
