Guild Wars 2

With the traits: [[zephyrs speed,10% faster]] and [[One with Air, 5%faster every 10s attuned, 25% faster]] and with [[Signet of Air, 10% faster]] you should be able to run 45% faster +33% when using this [[Windborne Speed 33% faster while active]].

Do none of these stack because I see no difference with any 2 of these active at a time?

Nope, none stack.

well they should probuably add something saying so, esspecialy with the traits. It’s kind of ridiculous to let you choose 2 traits that just happen to not work.

Yep, speed boosts do not stack, the game only uses the best one.

Which renders a number of Elementalist traits worthless because you can trait multiple speed boosts, none of which apply to you because they’re overwritten by other boosts.

Welcome to being an Elementalist, Working As Intended.

Could be worse, the Arcane 20 trait Windborne Dagger does not function at all.

Yeah, it’s too bad these don’t stack, and they definitely need a warning stating that. I was planning on going for the whole deal… Signet of Air, Zephyr’s Speed, One With the Air, Aeromancer’s Alacrity (to assist in spamming Updraft from Air Dagger 5 for 10s Swiftness every 32s), Windborne Dagger, and whatever +Speed gear I could find, if such a thing actually exists.

The crazy movement abilities in City of Heroes have really spoiled me. Zipping across Paragon City at 90mph makes it hard to put up with anything else.

Windborne Dagger and One with Air do not work.

You can get up to 33% increased movement speed, meaning you can never go over swiftness speed.
They are working properly you just cant stack them all at once.

This is incorrect. Windborne Dagger and One With Air do not wotk AT ALL.

Also sad that 30 points in arcane still gives you a 10 second element recharge!

They need to fix windborne dagger. It is one of the strongest traits that the elementalist has, yet it is not functioning atm.

What? One of the strongest traits? What exactly makes you think that?

You can never get above Swiftness speed. You can perma-stack Swiftness with Staff, Zephyr’s Boon (D/D) or a variety of other builds.

The trait is worthless in its current and “fixed” form.

Use Swiftness. Don’t use passive bonuses, they are terrible.
