[1.08] Staff no longer grants Tac speed bonus?

Ya, there was a staff that increased tactical speed by 0.25.

Was my favorinte weapon for casters.

2.0 base + 0.25 staff + 1.0 horses = 3.25 combat speed, or 4.25 actions. Enough to cast 3 spells, or move 3 tiles in combat.

Same here.  I guess they're nerfing tac speed bonuses for spellcasters or anyone who isn't buffing it when levelling up, probably to help the AI out who can't deal with one caster able to cast so many spells in one tac round.
