So what are your thoughts on Run Speed gear. Anyone have info on it?

[Yautjalv426]

I remember seeing some drops on youtube that gear can increase your movement speed. Was nothing as high as in diablo 2 though. I forgot what it was on if it was boots or something else. Anyone here know what the max speed you can get is? Well at least on normal. And is it restricted to 1 piece of gear or can it stack? If so will you get as much as you can to level a tad quicker? You do slow down when you face a new pack but still even a few % can add up.

There are 3 boots listed on the official D3 items page that have run speed on them. all made by the BS

As far as I'm aware although I could be wrong - movement speed is only boots.

I do hope we see items at higher levels with more movement speed on them. Personally, I like it.

I will go with experience gain instead of runspeed to level quicker on normal and nightmare, then switching to magic find on hell.

You could go with reasonable anounts of both though ;-D I think run speed will be one of the most important aspects of character development. I recall seeing somewhere that passive run speed bonuses are capped at 25% but ac tive skills, like barbarian's sprint can momentarily go above that.

While testing the barb last night, boots dropped with 7% run speed. So they dont look like they are Black Smith exclusive items. I cannot confirm that runspeed is a boots only effect. If it is, hopefully we can farm to find the best run speed boots to get max speed.

Also, Did anyone else try the beta last night after patch 16? Looks like the mobs are actually harder to kill and hit harder, I had to use a potion 3 or 4 times playing with just one friend. I even had my first beta death to a mob that was enchanted with MoltenMagma. I stood in the fire and I died. Was epic. Cannot wait to test higher difficulty levels.

I actually died with my Demon Hunter at Skeleton king. Took longer to kill him and was owned by mobs once I stood a bit too long at same spot getting hit, never had problems before.

It is noticeably more difficult than before. I started on a Wizard this time around and died 2 times during my first run through. I personally liked it, made me excited for progression instead of just stomping through everything like earlier patches in the beta.
