Well, if you want to be technical, the number used when referring to haste represents how many more attacks you get in a given period of time, not how much the delay is lowered.
(you probably know all about it, but just for others who don't)
In other words, if you had a delay of 100, with 20% haste, that does NOT mean your new delay is 80, it means your new delay would be 83.3333 repeating. The formula to determine this is simple, you just take the delay and then divide it by 1+the haste percentage. So for the hypothetical 100 delay weapon and 20% haste, you would do 100/(1+.2) or 100/1.2, which is 83.333 repeating.
People here on p99 are a LOT more aware of this than people were back in the day, but there are probably still people who could benefit from this info.
