How fast can you go?

[AA0]

Long ago we had the fastest speeds thread, so with all the changes to our world, lets see how fast we can go now. I have to say its expensive, but you can move pretty ******** good in istaria now, for 20s or so.
My max speed is 215, I have thought of a way to beat it, but it'd be tough.

I like to climb the various tall towers and jump off now and then, but the display doesn't show how fast terminal velocity is.

Funny you bring this up, I was curious just yesterday and managed to get this:



I think this is pretty well as high as it gets, but I may be missing another ability or 2. If you've thought of a way to beat yours, I suspect you can top this one as well.

Interesting thread!

Post the buffs used!

I haven't calc'd mine, but I'd use the following that I have available:

Road Bonus
Natures Path
Sprint
Quickstep V
Fleet of Foot
Speed tech on boots.


Missing saris sprint.. what else would be used?

[Levity]

Not just speed tech, but Gangaf Tagley's boots ... I bet that would help, if the runner were a Tinker. Also Gift of Speed. And does Spun Sugar stack in?

Ahh, gift of speed, yes.

spun sugar???

[evilkarl]

Spun sugar grants swift feet II

The two highest values posted are rangers which has natures path as rangers are the fastest moving (although unfortunately its masterable)

[gusi]

I'd have a go at it too.. But Zodias stole both my BHM's :'(.

[evilkarl]

I didn't steal em you gave em to me cause you aren't a meleer :P

[gusi]

Shh! Sounds better if you stole them!

[Trust]

Sprint and Saris Sprint cancel eachother 12 so you can only have one or the other.

[AA0]

I had the following

Base Speed +50
Fleet of foot +10
Natures path +25
Road Bonus +25
Quints V +12
Gift of Speed V +10
Istara's Gait V - 115% Base speed (+8)
Sprint +40
Teched TV boots +10
Gangaf's Experimental boots +25


I was thinking, it is possible to gain Istara's Gait VI, and possible IV would stack with it, hard to say without trying

[Zarcharien]

What about the spell Swift Feet, anyone use that too?

[gusi]

Swift Feet conflicts with Nature's Path unfortunately. Add in Boar's Rage and you'll get another +6 there AAO.

I had a boar's mask, but didn't keep it since archers have no use for it, didn't even remember about the speed boost.

You've got it, gusi, the 6 speed point bonus I had was due to me using Boar's Rage. This is often forgotten due to its other bonuses being so helpful.

[Seranthor]

reckon I'm just pokey by being in the 160s and not trying to be in the race, yet.

[Fratricide]

and me just being happy with gettin just over 100... I was feeling all giddy... now only to find out that I could be going at least 2 times that... >.< how do you keep your eyes open going that fast??

[Pharcellus]

I go as fast as most all giant flying chickens.. [:P]

75 base air speed
99 max air speed (2 Wings of Velocity V +24)

50 base speed
74 off road with no buffs (2 Wings of Speed V +24)
99 on roads with no buffs (road bonus +25)
109(bb) for 2 hours (Gift of Speed V +10)
111 / 121(bb) for 30 minutes (Quints V +12)
119 / 129(bb) for 10 minutes (Istara's Gait V - 115% Base speed +8)
143 (bb) for 3 minutes (Swift Feet V +14)
159 / 183 (biped buffed) max ground speed for a 10-second burst (Sprint +40)

Edit: did it in a hurry and muffed the numbers

[Blue Hasia]

This here is my speed record due to a tempory bug when my wing scales were made got two scales that lasted till I relogged
* reason why speed is the same as vec is beacise im parked on a road
