Guild Wars 2

Last night a fellow Elementalist and I noticed that we were running the same speed. This was obviously wrong because while he only had [Zephyr’s Speed (10%) and One with Air (5% every 10 seconds for a maximum of 25%)] I in addition had [Wind Born Dagger (15%) and Signet of Air (10%).

In addition we noticed that One With Air did not seem to be increasing by +5% every 10 seconds for 5 ticks. Instead it seemed like it ticked only 3 times, although this was hard to confirm.

Finally we I also tried disabling One With Air but kept Wind Born Dagger and Signet of Air and yet this appeared to add ZERO speed increase. I suspect that either these two skills provide no speed increase at all or perhaps they are being bugged by Zephyr’s Speed? In any event…

ANET please fix this as it really is bad to provide traits that explain to do something when they in fact do not.

Thank you.

Yes the Windborne Dagger trait does not add any speed at all right now. It is also pointed out on the wiki http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Windborne_Dagger

I hope this gets fixed soon. Its a trait that I would really like to use.

I posted a more in depth analysis of the issue a few days ago, but in short ABSOLUTELY NO MOVEMENT SPEED INCREASES STACK. The fastest any character can go is with the swiftness boon and all characters with the swiftness boon move the same speed (disregarding the special equipment that “buffs” swiftness).

One with Air is working up to the 25%, but it has strange activation and deactivation issues. Look for my post if you really want to know all the gory details.
