Movement Speed (or run speed) is the rate at which a character runs along the land. Movement speed is calculated by units per second. The base movement speed for all characters is 13.97, except Centaurs, which have 16.94, and Minotaurs which have 15.95.

Modifying Movement Speed
Movement speed modifiers have two categories: base and buff.
Base Movement Speed
Base movement speed is a character's racial movement rate. The base speed can only be enhanced by the Running skill. The running skill increases base movement speed at a rate of 0.25% increase per percentage point.
Buffed Movement Speed
All other run speed modifiers are considered buffs and apply cumulatively to the base speed.
Some examples of movement speed buffs:
- Windlords boots: Windlords provide a 5% increase increase.
- All Fighter and Rogue classes receive a 5% movement speed increase.
- Two starting runes modify movement speed:
- Blood of the Dragon: +5% (Irekei only)
- Juggernaut: -10% (Dwarf, Half Giant, and Minotaur only)
- Three shrine boons modify movement speed:
- Minotaur Boon: The Minotaur shrine provides a 10% movement speed increase (for first place)
- Necromancer Boon: The Necromancer shrine provides a 1% movement speed increase (for first place)
- Wizard Boon: The Wizard shrine provides a 5% movement speed increase (for first place)
Limited-duration effects also fall under the buffs category:
- Movement Buffs: All short-duration movement speed buffs (such as Sprint or Travel Stance) increase speed by a flat percentage.
- Snares: Snare effects subtract a flat percentage of movement speed.
Movement Speed Formula
Once you have determined the base and buff modifiers, you can calculate the final speed total using the formula below.
(Base Speed) * (1 + Speed Modifiers Total)
Example
A Human Thief with windlords boots, a 50% movement speed buff, and 100% running skill.
- The base speed is 13.97, which is increased by 25% from the thief's 100% running. The base run speed is 17.46.
- The thief has windlords (.05), is a rogue (.05), and has a 50% movement speed buff applied (.5). The buffs increase the base by 60%.
Therefore, this example character runs at 27.94, or 100% faster than the base movement speed.
Movement Speed Cap
The movement speed cap is 41 units per second. As you can see above, it would be difficult to reach this cap without some effort.
