Quick Answer for Patch 26.20

  1. Dual Wield

    Prismatic

    Gain 20% total Attack Speed.

    Why on Xayah

    Deadly Plumage (W) fires a secondary blade with each attack, so more Attack Speed means more blades and uses your Clean Cuts (Passive) Feather-dropping attacks faster.

  2. Lightning Strikes

    Gold

    Gain 20% total Attack Speed.

    Why on Xayah

    More Attack Speed spends your Clean Cuts (Passive) attacks quicker, laying Feathers faster so Bladecaller (E) is ready to root sooner.

  3. Tap Dancer

    Prismatic

    Gain Attack Speed equal to 10% of your Move Speed.

    Why on Xayah

    Deadly Plumage (W) grants Move Speed when its secondary blade hits a champion, and Tap Dancer turns that Move Speed into extra Attack Speed.
