So as you might imagine, skilled players don’t tend to stand around when a thief stealths near them in PvP. They run around with their new 25% movement signets. The ones that work correctly. And I’m stuck chasing them at 33% speed instead of 50%, which doesn’t tend to work with my 3-4s stealth. Its fairly obvious fleet shadow was changed to take into account how many classes now have access to 25% movement speed (Which again, work). When are we going to get our proper 50% movement in stealth? It’s been over 2 weeks since patch.

If you’re a thief and haven’t
pre-ordered HOT at this point,
save yourself the money and don’t bother.

You get +50% relative to combat speed, when you are in combat, which I expect you’d all be given the situation you want it to work in. You also have a 25% sig so you should be able to reach +75%, relative to combat speed.

Off course, out of combat movement speed is capped at normal + 33% (which is 2x combat)

speed increaser don’t stack, so no +75% speed.

“Off course” what ? where is it written that there is a cap ?

You are right, I tested and SoS + Fleet is the same as Fleet alone
Wiki mentions a cap

You absolutely do not get the 50% bonus to speed, either in or out of combat – I’ve tested both situations using SoS and swiftness. You get 33% in stealth (which is what Fleet shadow did Pre-patch), which just doesn’t cut it anymore with the new 25% speed signets.

Fleet > SoS
When I cross-country and CnD something the speed remains about the same, which would match what the wiki has to say on movement speed.
How do you test it, btw?

Fleet is only 8% faster then SoS, and 0% faster then swiftness.
