Running+strafing question

[fastboy21]

extremely noticeable when you strafe while hide/sneaking as rogue. i've gotten quite used to strafe walking in dungeons.

agility governs run speed right?

Not so far as I know

Factors for your running speed I believe are spells, songs, and encumbrance. I seem to remember levitation playing a part, but that might have to do with only when you're over weight.

If you are encumbered, it has a detrimental effect on your agility, but agility does not decide your traveling speed.

1) Agility has nothing to do with run speed. Being encumbered does. That also happens to lower your agility, but the two are not related.

2) Running and strafing, as well as running and jumping, both increase your run speed. You can easily see this because if you just run straight, monsters will catch up to you, but if you run and strafe or run and jump, you can outrun them. This is a very useful tool if you overpulled in an outdoor zone.

you MAY outrun then MAY.

I have tried strafe/running jumping and it doesn't do dick. There is no point in trying to run personally I actually stand less of a chance of survival if i try and run as opposed to standing and dying at least with standing there I MIGHT win the fight as opposed to running i guaranteed die...

I don't know what your problem is, but with ANY character, I can just run + strafe and I will outrun ANY mob that doesn't have a natural FAST run, or has SoW on them. I only run +strafe AND jump, when I'm desperately trying to get away because of the possibility of adds.

I have like a 99% success rate with strafe running. I think you have a technical issue that you're not aware of rham, there's no explanation for why it wouldn't work for you but would work for me (as well as others)

Nah I've been playing for 1 year, minus a few weeks, and I've NEVER ONCE outran a mob with strafe run or strafe run jump or strafe jump or any combo.


Run speed is so slow on this server it really doesnt matter what you do unless you have a golden dick you cant outrun mobs.

Other people can outrun mobs just fine with these methods. You have a problem with your computer or connection. Stop being all pissy and blaming the server for it (though there are run speed problems).

[Rhambuk]

okay So instead of being pissy about Clientside runspeed I can....
