Wow, so many people can't strafe run? This did work on classic live and it works here. I do it all the time. I can outrun mobs from one side of the longest zone to the other if I need to. Just to clarify how I personally do this, you press forward and strafe simultaneously and angle yourself at a diagonal so you run in a straight line with character facing diagonally from that line. Occassionally, they may catch up to you at which point you jump (off a hill if you can to gain more distance) and you are good. Again, I do this all the time, there is absolutely no question that it works. If it doesn't work for you, you are doing it wrong.

it works for me, and the way I use it the most is when im encumbered. Easily tested to, encumber yourself to the point of crawling, then strafe and move forward at the same time, ull move at almost regular run speed. I was able to RUN from EC tunnel to NFP bank with 10k plat on my little gnome necro, and he was actually running, no sow/str buffs

Theres no question that strafe running increases your run speed, but its simply not enough to escape from mobs for some players.

whether its lag or what I don't know, but I've talked to a lot of people on this server over the last year that have this issue. For people that can get away congratulations! because its impossible for some of us =p
