Question about dual wielding attack speed

I made a Champion (Warfare + Nature) cuz i wanted to use a fast dual wield character so, im lvl 41 and im using this items: 2 Sabertoohs wich are very fast swords, one gives me +30% attack speed and the other one gives me +33% attack speed plus +8% attack speed with an attached relic; Ramses Coil that gives me +10% attack speed and a Band of Domination that gives me +10% total speed.
I have this skills: Weapon Training that gives me +16%, Onslaught-Ardor that gives me +18% atack speed, Heart of the Oak that gives me +10% total speed and Streght of the Pack (wolves skill) that gives me +15% total speed.
The thing is: im only getting 172% atack speed!!!!
P.S. Shirine of Combat do not help my speed either

My guess would be that there is a limit to the attack speed.

AFAIK, attack speed is capped at 171%

yep, 171% is the max attack speed with dual wield

i just fund that the the cap atack speed is 190% and not 300% as was told, so my dual wielding with 2 VERY FAST swords is caped at 171% AND if i use a sword and an axe to try to use the bonuses of my class the the cap is EVEN lower= dual wielding and most of the atack speed bonuses are are just for decoration, what a stupid and ridiculous thing to do in a game...

I realy like your build idear and and reading your problem with a max speed is madness, its like putting a cap on bleeding dam only ie: 10 points above the max skill. it means theres no point in having bleeding dam on wepons. so whats that all about??
