I found out some interesting things about Kaisers through some tests I've made.
First off, when reaching "Stage 2" of your Morph Gauge, the effect of the "Stage 2" Morph replaces the "Stage 1" Morph; they don't stack together. I noticed attack speed does not increase after changing to "Stage 2" and the Stance rate isn't 100% as it should be if the 2 Morph stages were added together; Kaisers in reality have an 80% stance rate untransfigured during "Stage 2". I've noticed some people haven't noticed, apparently. :f6:
Secondly, Kaisers can bypass the fast (2) attack speed cap, but there seems to be a hard attack speed cap of fast (0). I'm not sure if this is intended or not but it's definitely very real. For example, Kaisers Blaze Up has a 2 attack speed boost while the Morph gauge adds 1 attack speed; bringing this to fast (3). Now, if you add decent SI (1 attack speed) to the mix that brings it to fast (2); yes, I did check the skills individually to see if they worked or not, they all did; including glitched Final Form's attack speed and Majesty.
Further explaining this, using Kaisers Majesty Hyper grants a 1 attack speed boost; but even using a fast (2) attack speed there is a noticeable speed increase, not just with the animation itself but on how much faster it hits. Regarding the fast (0) hard cap, during the times where Majesty, Terms from AB and Final Form could be glitched from Aswan, I noticed I could attack even faster than with just Majesty alone.
Summing it up, I'd technically would have a fast (-1 apparently) attack speed with Blaze Up (2 attack speed), Decent SI (1 attack speed), Morph (1 attack speed), Majesty (1 attack speed) and glitched Final Form (2 attack speed). I used that combination without Majesty then used Majesty afterwards; the attack speeds were exactly the same. I did fill up my Morph gauge after glitching Final Form to test this, the attack speed and damage boost from Final Form remained after the transformation effect disappeared. I can't say I'm 100% sure it affects transfigured Kaisers though but I have a feeling it does; before Blaze Up was glitched with Final Form (currently the Blaze Up attack speed does not work while transfigured but the attack speed from Final Form itself does, decent SI doesn't work with Final Form on either) Blaze Up could push our attack speed to fast (2) which was incredibly fast and I knew decent SI worked with Final Form on; however I didn't do any tests before it wound up glitched so I can't say for sure for transfigured Kaisers. Currently transfigured Kaisers are sitting at fast (4) due to the glitch.
Untransfigured Kaisers can definitely break the attack speed cap though. I have no idea if this applies to KMS and the other versions but it does apply to GMS.
I can provide video proof later on if it's needed; heading to sleep for now.
