Except for Ring of Dark Intent (which I'm far from seeing) and Mistmoore's Cloak (we dont do much IS on those days, and even then we dont see that cloak a lot...), is there any "really" good item with Haste ? I'd like to get rid of this old Amulet of Forsworn...
But I couldnt really find something decent so far

Any help with that would be greatly appreciated

I remember CoF and those Treasured gloves/gauntlets in MMC, but looking for any other option.

i think there's a mastercrafted cloak with haste.
cloak of flames. that avatar belt if you were lucky.

I've been wondering this myself. I have the Aumlet of the Foresworn, and Darkened Gauntlets from MMC, but there seem to be nicer items to wear in those slots instead. I'm not sure I should give up my Rallos cloak for a Mastercrafted haste cloak or not - help us Kall! =)

\aITEM 392557572 55843201:Sebilisian Berserker Cloak\/a from Lower Seb is a fine cloak with 25% haste.

Edit: Sadly cant remember the name of the mob that drops it.

Sadly, there's no good T8 haste items for scouts.

Your best bet is either Belt of Manifestations, Mayong's Cloak, Darkened Gauntlets, or Amulet of the Forsworn.

The ring slot is arguably the best jewelry slot in the game, so if you're going to use the Ring of Dark Intent you're giving up an amazing slot and the Cape of Kor-sha just sucks.

They really need a T8 scout usable haste earring (Dreamweaver's Scale was scout usable in beta, fuck whoever made it fighter only), wrist, and belt (for those unlucky in T7), and maybe gloves (again fuck fighter only VP loot). Those seem to be the weakest slots at the moment.

There is a 26% haste mastercrafted cloak which is really quite decent.
