    In any case, disagreements aside about 'oos quicker the oo', I have a character build solely for the purpose of farming, and I do it late at night when I want to press as few buttons as possible and I HATE getting on and off my horse.

    I have all the speed bonuses I mentioned except I forsake the minor expedition that I would get from Jailbreaker and replace it with Darkstride (50% reduction to sprint cost). My CP's are allocated to Windrunning, stam regen, stam cost reduction for Rapids and to get all the harvesting passives. I have the Werewolf Ultimate slotted for the bonus stam regen and drink Freyas Night Infusion? which is the max CP green drink dedicated solely for stam regen. All up I have just over 4000 stam regen which tops me back to full anytime I stop to harvest a node. That's what works for me anyway.
    I have pretty much the same build using nightblade. With Jailbreaker i get the minor exp for NB. I think stam regen was about 3500 using some Orzorga's stuff. That has worked for me and the character can kill mobs too. I have even 3 Cyrodiil Wards behind weapon swap for fastest possible horse speed. But running is so fast i rarely use horse.

    I also catch streaksorcs and can sprint way way further.

    I hope your joking, with hurricane sorcs get major exp anyways, then we can easily gear for minor exp, and use the same stone and mundus while using streak and will still be atleast 5 times faster.

    @CosmicSoul , hurricane gives minor expedition, not major.

    Whoops but same applies as you can use major from armor.

    Oh yes of course there's multiple 'paths' (excuse the pun) to get the same ability buffs, but I find that the animation of Path slows you down a lot whilst casting and needs to be reapplied a lot more than Rapids. For a short 'parse' yes they'd be equal, but for sustain Rapids is just a little better.

    Telling you people, a stam build with Rapids, no matter what the class, is the way to go. But really you're going so fast anyway the small differences don't really count for much. Just more or less button pushing. Either way it actually makes farming FUN!! TBH I'm not even an orc but was just explaining what would be quickest. I'm a wood elf, for the stam regen and just because I didn't think I'd enjoy being so quick and farming as much as I do. And yes, I STILL outrun a sorc streaker.

    Yes any ability that gives the same buff does not stack. They changed all this in a patch a year? or so ago. It was even crazier then. You could stack Rapids and the then version of Hurricane AND all the rest of the buffs and was insane. Other builds for various specialisations were doing the same with similar buffs. Hence the change to that they no longer stack.

    No because the concealed bonus only applies when you are cloaked. You can't sprint when you're cloaked (well you can but then it pulls you out of cloak). And sprint speed bonus is greater than the concealed speed bonus. Although as somebody above said, any class can reach top speed with the minor expedition from the jailbreaker set. So a NB could reach max speed, but not through using concealed.

    Try it with shadow dancer set. It removes the sneak speed penalty and concealed stacks above that. Not only can my NB out sneak her sprint by a good deal, she gives my other stam character in Fiord's and full medium a close run for his money.

    Or just be a vamp with Dark Stalker. The advantage having a NB vamp over any other class is that you can make a toon that is super fast no matter what they're doing, I have an Argonian NB with Jailbreaker, Fiord's on one bar and Cyrodiil Wards on the other bar. Steed mundus, all divines, windrunner CP passive.
    Whether he's sneaking, sprinting, mounting or swimming (minor and major expedition work with swimming, as well as concealed weapons + invisi pots, for those who didn't know) that lizard is really fast.

    I got my Orc Sorc setup kinda like yours, nit as much stamp regen, but I just use dark deal when I want more stam. I use 5 piece fiords, 5 piece darkstride, 2 piece red mountain all prosperous. I have Windrunning in the CP category, I use quick cloak in the dual wield for major exoedition.

    I could go faster by using jailbreaker instead of darkstride or hurricane along with quick cloak. You have to strike a balance between not having today buff yourself too often and maintaining your stam.

    For only completeness, Fiord is +15% not 25% but the end result of max speed possible is the same. Myself I run Cowards Gear (Major Exp +30% while sprinting) + Fiords (+15%) + Hurricane (+10%). I play in a non-CP campaign so I passed on the steed for the Tower.

    I recently made an Orc Warden just for playing around with sprint speed sets and buffs.

    So far it is:


    Orc passive, Swift Warrior: Increases your damage done with melee attacks by 4%. Reduces the cost of Sprint by 12% and increases the Movement Speed bonus of Sprint by 10%

    Fjiord's Legacy Set: Reduces the cost and increases the Movement Speed bonus of Sprint by 15%.

    Coward's Gear Set: While Sprinting you gain Major Expedition and Major Protection, increasing your Movement Speed and reducing your damage taken by 30%.

    The Steed Mundus: Increases run speed by 6% & increases Health recovery by 299 (Using Divine trait on the four small pieces)

    The Lover, Windrunning: Increases your Movement Speed and Mounted Speed by 2%. Also increases Health and Magicka Recovery by 10% while sprinting.

    Rapid Maneuver, Charging Maneuver: Mobilize your forces, granting Major Expedition and Major Gallop to you and your group, increasing your Movement Speed by 30% and Mounted Speed by 30%. Also grants immunity to snares and immobilizations. The effect ends if you cast any spell on an enemy or ally, but you gain Minor Expedition, increasing your Movement Speed by 10% for 8 seconds.

    Falcon's Swiftness, Bird of Prey: Invoke the spirit of agility to gain Major Expedition, increasing movement speed by 30% over 10 seconds and Major Endurance increasing stamina recovery for 20% over 10 seconds. Gain Minor Berserk, increasing damage done by 8% for 14 seconds.

    Betty Netch, Bull Netch: Call a bull netch that restores 4029 Stamina over 25 seconds. Gain Major Brutality and Major Sorcery, increasing Weapon and Spell Damage by 20% over 27 seconds.

    I use the 3 sources of Major Expedition to maintain it even when I am not sprinting. Sometimes i feel a slight boost when the Minor Expedition section of the Charging Maneuver kicks in, but i could be imagining it. I will try a set with a Minor Expedition buff to see if it stacks.

    With this build I can permasprint.

    The problem with this is you don't have a continuous source of minor expedition (8 seconds from charging maneuver isn't enough), and major expedition doesn't stack. You oughta switch cowards out for jalibreaker, that will put you more on the right track. Just use rapids for major expedition and nothing else.

    This guy pretty much had it down, and I may just have to copy his setup now. ↓
    If you want the fastest possible farmer in the game you'd have to be an orc (+9% speed) stam sorc (minor expedition +10% speed) OR use jailbreaker set for non-sorcs (minor expedition +10% speed), using rapid maneuvers (major expedition +30% speed) and the fiords legacy set (+25% speed) plus the steed mundus (+5% speed) and all divines medium armor (+21% speed) and have 120 CP's in the Lover constellation for the Windrunning passive (+2% speed).

    Wasnt the speed capped at 130% due BG speed builds ? I remember read about it after MW release.
    Groupfinder:
    The worst part is when it finally puts you in a group, your healer turns into a werewolf, your tank has 14k HP and the dps is heavy armor, using a restro staff and a two handed sword on the backbar. Then comes the 15 minute penalty before the cycle starts anew.

    Rulz of Morrowind:
    • The first rule of Morrowind is: You do not talk about Morrowind.
    • The second rule of Morrowind is: You do not talk about Morrowind.
    • Third rule of Morrowind: Someone yells NDA stuff, uploads images, streams, the game is over.
    • Fourth rule: only invited players can test.
    • Fifth rule: one invite at a time, fellas.
    • Sixth rule: crying or bashing on pts.
    • Seventh rule: NDA will go on as long as they have to.
    • And the eighth and final rule: If this is your first invite at Morrowind, you have to play.
