Guild Wars 2

Is there some kind of accessory, amulet, ring that provides a fixed speed buff so you have it all the time you are wearing it?

My problem is my engineer is so darn slow. Other professions seem to have a signet or trait that makes them faster when active. The only one I could find for engineer is a master trait and it only gives the 25% while in combat. I don’t really want to throw that many trait points toward that line just for that since I mostly need the increased speed to reduce travel time.

I mostly solo PvE or open world with a few other people. I’m always lagging behind unless someone is constantly giving me some kind of buff. My poor engineer just clunks along weighed down by her backpack. Maybe that is the point I guess

tl;dr

Is there an item I can buy that will at least increase my speed even a little all the time I am using it? I don’t have many of those speed boosters that drop from chests and don’t want to buy keys just for a chance to get more.

Thank you for reading my question and I hope everyone is enjoying the Dragon Bash as much as I am.

Speedy Kits which you can combo with Invigorating Speed

Good luck being speedy.

EDIT: Sorry this isn’t an item, but I think it suits your needs just fine, if not better.

Thank you for your help. If I am reading it right I will need to keep swapping kits every 5 seconds while I am just trucking down the road?

yip, to have longer lasting speed you can use elixer B, but that has a 40 sec cooldown for 10 second speed. You also get a toolbelt skill though where you can toss the elxier before you for another 10 second speed (also 40 second cooldown).

But speedy kits is enough to get a constant speedbuff if you equip/unequip a kit all the time.

Medkit 5 also gives swiftness for less spamming of kits.

Thanks everyone for the help and information. I guess when I get back in game I’ll have to map a few extra mouse buttons I don’t use so I can hot swap kits easy as I’m trucking down the road.

Edit: It would be cool if there was an item like a ring that would give a fixed speed buff.
