I assume there’s a hardcap on movement speed that is causing this trait to bug. With that in mind, I’d really like to see the description corrected to 33% and the movement speed bonus applied to Revealed in addition to stealth.

Fleet Shadow is just slightly faster then Swiftness (when in combat).

• In combat: 210 u/s
• Out of Combat: 300 u/s

• In Combat + Swiftness (0.33*210): 279 u/s
• Out of Combat + Swiftness (0.33*300): 400 u/s

• In Combat + Fleet Shadow (1.5*210): 315 u/s
• Out of Combat + Fleet Shadow (1.5*300): 450 u/s

Bonus information:

• In Combat + Signet of Shadows (1.25*210): 263 u/s
• Out of Combat + Signet of Shadows (1.25*300): 375 u/s

Yeah, but does the 50% boost actually work? It seems like it’s bugged and actually only giving 33%.

Shouldn’t it be 450?

As for it working or not… just get another thief and test ingame.

Its not buged. You cant feel it much out of combat because of movement speed cap. Full effect (50%) can be felt only in combat, because base speed drops in combat. End of discussion.

The problem is, you don’t really need that runspeed when your out of combat, and stealth usually always puts you into it.

At the most, you could only get 1 second of real out of combat speed and only in pve combat when things may or may not drop aggro.

Aka, unpractical.

Oops, you are absolutely right. Fixed :)
