    Default Movement speed bonuses

    I am thinking of creating a build focused on max passive movement spd and was wondering how (or if) the Acrobat II +10% bonus stacks. These are only other bonuses i know of:

    1) Barbarian fast movement 10%
    2) Striding/Longstep 5%-30%


    I am also unsure if any of these stack with Sprint boosts.


    Thanks for any help!

    Example: 19 rogue / 1 barbarian

    Acrobat II 10% movement speed bonuses
    Barbarian 10% movement speed bonus from lvl 1
    Barbarian speed boost fom lvl 1 enhancements
    Striding 30% item

    Those 4 listed above will all stack. Happy running speed racer.

    All spells and sprint shoes don't stack. you get the bonus of the highest effect.

    Max sprint boots is +30%
    Expeditious Retreat Spell +25%
    you would get the best on of the two.

    I recommend picking your race as human and getting the Least Dragonmark of Passage
    so you can get +25% speed starting at level one. you will never need to buy sprint boots than.

    Monk a good way to pick up bonus speed too, there raises 5% every 3 level and stacks with everything, as does Barbarian fast movement +10% or any other named class speed boost.

    Hope this helps a bit.

    Joke:
    A paladin joins a pug run. Once in quest a Halfling summons an Iron defender, starts spewing grease all over the paladin’s feet/Paladin falls.

    Paladin says “WHAT THE F***! THAT DOES NOT HELP!!" The Halfling reply’s "Sure it does, gives me a laugh every time.”

    best "static" movement is a monk with +30% at level 18.
    followed by a barb splashed acrobat II with +20% (10% from barb 1 and 10% from acroII)

    though I guess now with alignment change a monk18/barb1/?1 would be the fastest
    with monk 30% and barb 10%.
    Move along , Nothing to see here

    Monk and barb do not mix, I'm afraid.

    people say haste moves you to 40% but this is a lie. when I read the description for for the haste spell, it says it increases "attack speed". It says nothing about increasing movement speed.

    wearing a 25% striding ring, then drinking a haste pot results in ZERO perceptible speed increase. I have tested this over and over again. I must have something on my toon that is borking the haste effect otherwise.

    if someone could solve this mystery for me, I'd be pretty darn-tootin appreciative

    I would recommend never taking dragonmarks. If you want maximum passive movement speed, wear striding boots and go pure monk. That would give you a passive 60% bonus to movement.

    Your alignment must still fit within the class parameters...

    Paladin = lawful good
    Barbarian, Bard = non lawful
    Monk = any lawful

    The alignment change potion simply lets you shift from one legit alignment to another.
