Guild Wars 2

I feel like this trait doesn’t give as much speed as it says it does. I have nothing to back this up, but still feel like my speed after stealthing does not change, nor can I see a noticeable difference in run speed after stealth wears off.

It doesn’t. Out of combat you get +33% movement speed, (same as swiftness). In combat you receive +45% [of in-combat] movement speed, (if I’m not mistaken).

No it still gives the 50% speed bonus that it says.

I suggest looking at this wiki page on movement speed details but as explained. The 50% increase will override swiftness speed so practically you are moving 17% faster in combat vs one with swiftness so they wont outrun you.

You will not notice it if you compare 2 moving objects that go almost at similar speed but if you take 1 that has no speed increase and one that has the 50%, you will greatly see the speed difference and distance coverage.
