Guild Wars 2

Hey I could’t find an information if Rune of Speed stacks with 25% speed increase from Sigils?

I know that swiftness is the highest that you can get and rune does not stack with it.
but 25% with 5% do they make 30% together ?
is it 5% increase and 25% on top that or vice versa?

Indeed – more info here too: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Movement_speed

Movement speed bonuses don’t stack unless they specifically state they do. The Rune won’t stack with move speed bonuses from signets.

what is the point of this rune then ?
I know in the past it was 7% better swiftness, but 5% that does not stack is nothing.
I don’t know a single case where this could be used.
PvE … 5% faster speed won’t make a difference.
PvP … please
Exploring the world … ya mad.

Since this topic is already opened, I’ll ask here if you won’t mind: What about all these movement bonuses from elementalist’s traits? Do they stack with swiftness?

No they do not. Speed is always the highest value from any one source.

Example:
Thief with…
traited stealth speed (50%)
signet of shadows (25%)
swiftness (+33%)

When signet of shadows is up, the thief will have 25% bonus speed.

When swiftness is up, signet of shadows will get overridden and the thief will have +33% bonus speed.

When the thief is stealthed, the thief will have +50% bonus speed, regardless of swiftness or signet of shadows being up/ready.
