Guild Wars 2

Gave this it’s own topic because it’s not really about the dashes, leaps, etc but more about what Super Speed does outside of that. Anyway…

Basicly, if you use super speed right now and just run, you will run just as fast as you do with swiftness on you, which kinda makes the whole thing pointless if it won’t affect leaps, dashes etc anymore. I honestly think Super Speed should be fixed to make you move at 200% speed, or if that’s unacceptable atleast make you unable to be affected by movement reducing effects.

If nothing is changed except for the fact that it no longer effects skills, you might as well remove it from the game entirely. No point to have 2 boons (one isn’t a boon I know but whatever) that do the exact same thing.

If Super Speed isn’t increasing run speed by 100% as the tooltip indicates then this should really go in the bug reporting forum.

It absolutely works how it is supposed to, just like Fleet Shadow for thieves works as intended.

You have base speed of 100% out of combat (ooc) and 66% in combat (ic). Speed ooc and ic is capped at 133%, thus you max out movement speed just by applying swiftness ooc and neither Fleet Shadow or Superspeed are faster. But ic you have a base speed of 66%. Swiftness then puts you at 88%, slightly slower than a person ooc without swiftness. Fleet Shadow brings you to 99% and Superspeed maxes speed at 132% even ic. Nothing bugged there!

Have this for an overview:

Superspeed +100% /// ooc 133% /// ic 132%
Fleet Shadow +50% /// ooc 133÷ /// ic 99%
Swiftness +33% /// ooc 133% /// ic 88%
Signet +25% /// ooc 125% /// ic 82,5%
Base ooc 100% /// ic 66%
Cripple -50% /// ooc 50% /// ic 33%
Chill -66% /// ooc 33% /// ic 22%
