Steady Shot scales with Haste?

whether it does or does not my casting time of steady shot if definately not 1.5 second more like 0.8-1 second. (no haste buffs just gear)

I've seen it scale with Rapid Fire, so I don't think it's unreasonable that it would scale with haste. But seeing as how my hunter has poor gear, I sadly cannot test it with passive haste rating.

My usual cast time without haste but with Serpents Swiftness is ~1.1 sec when imp hawk procs it goes down to about .8 sec. Also it does scale with haste as far as I know.

it does indeed scale with haste, but be careful because it doesn't take a lot as a BM hunter to put it below the GCD which is a bit pants

Steady shot cast time is reduced by haste effects.
correct

Well the only time it gets pants is when your steady shot and auto shot completes before the GCD, so you can't start the next SS. for instance if your steady shot is below 1 second, then 0.5 sec for the autoshot to complete will mean that your steady shot will be ready as soon as the autoshot fires.
If you want to work out how much haste to get to the optimum speed for a 1:1, try doing your autoshot time minus your steady shot time. Then whatever the answer is minus 0.5 from it. that'll give you how much latency you can have, this is like your dead time, so you want to minimuise it
2 sec autoshot, 1.1 steady shot = 0.9 sec wasted time.
0.9 waste minus 0.5 = 0.4 free time
meaning a maximum of 400 ms latency.
So if you havea a 200 latency when raiding, you need enough haste to reduce your weapon speed by 0.2 to give you your *theoretical* max dps
sorry if my maths is off, and PLEASE correct me if i made a mistake =]
