In Last Epoch, Haste is a status ailment that increases your movement speed by 30 percent for four seconds, but you can only have one Haste stack at a time.

For example, if you proc the Haste status ailment twice, you will only get one stack of Haste, which lasts for four seconds. You can proc it again once the four seconds are up and your Haste buff is gone. Gaining 30 percent increased movement speed for four seconds may not seem like a lot, but for the more fast-paced or even slow builds,  having the boost in movement speed can help you in dire circumstances, like avoiding one-shot mechanics. And there are a few sources you can use to get the Haste status ailment.
