Does spell haste stack with item haste?

Example is Shaman alacrity spell and FBSS.  Do I get 21% (for sash)
plus whatever alacrity adds?  Or is it whichever is higher?

I'm not counting bard songs.

Thanks.

The short answer is, yes.

Item haste does not stack - only the biggest one wins.  Spell haste
does not stack - again, only the best one is used.  The best spell
haste and the best item haste do stack.  There are undoubtedly odd
situations involving arcane item/buff combinations I'm not familiar
with. :)  For example, the Eyepatch of Plunder is an item, but it has a
clicky effect that counts as spell haste.

Leaving out bard songs simplifies things a lot.  Some songs count as
spell haste, whereas others count as "overhaste", or can stack with
spell haste.

Haste gained through tribute counts as item haste.  It will not stack
with a FBSS, but will stack with haste spell buffs.

Yes, up to a cap on total haste that varies by level and class.

Best item plus best spell, with a cap on the total.

>I'm not counting bard songs.

Some bard songs are just normal spell haste, some are "overhaste", which both
stacks AND increases the cap.

Overhaste is V3 haste check the spell on lucy, rizlonas and auspice of the

The lesson here F is that you should not question The Snack.
