How deal with the insane run speed of mobs

Lazortag should have been aborted.

I don't know if his comments warrant this =P

Make a lvl 1 monk and put all points into agility.
Get a lvl 50 sow and ask the 50 to run through wk on auto follow of the monk.
The level 50 sower will fall behind in a few minutes.... encumbered or NOT.


As run speed. The devs have stated time and time again they tried to change it and this is the closest they can get. if they change the number by .001 or something the mobs barely move at all.

That would be really hard to test, but I guess I'll have to. I was hoping some nerd on the forums would know the answer to my question. Oh well.

Actually you could do the same test just not using 200/100 = 2/1 could be something along the lines of 90/60 = 135/90, 60 and 90 are both easily obtainable by adding points to a level 1's str during creation. Then you just need a to load them up with the correct amount of copper and time yourself running from point A to point B on both characters.

The problem for me isn't getting two equivalent ratios so much as it is "timing the runspeed" of the two characters. I mean, so many things can affect your runspeed, so I'd have to find a definite point A and point B to run between with no obstacles or anything impeding me.

Lazor - your encumbrance affects both agility by a certain percentage and movement speed by a certain percentage. You're simply correlating the two where a coincidental yet indirect relationship exists. If you were encumbered the same amount yet had a ton of AGI gear, you'd notice the same movement speed.

I already admitted that you guys are all right and agility has no effect on runspeed. I did this two posts ago. My question is: will an encumbrance ratio of 2x/2y affect your runspeed the same as an encumbrance ratio of x/y? Is it really calculated like a ratio, or is having 2/1 encumbrance considered not that bad because you're just encumbered one over.

Basically, is 200/100 as impeding to your movement speed as 2/1? This question is independent of what you guys seem to think I'm asserting.

Gotcha, i apologize.

I dunno on that one. Test it and let us know [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Funny how everyone has to say whats on their mind, even though its the same as the last 20 posts, my turn!

Get over it. Its harder and thus more fun this way, if you can't deal with it make a druid like everyone else and get sow.
