Does Medium Armor needs updated passive to grant increase movement speed always not only in sprint

WoppaBoem

Athletics passive from Medium Armor : Increases your Movement Speed while using Sprint by 3% and reduces the cost of Roll Dodge by 4% per piece of Medium Armor equipped.

Please remove the while using sprint. The percentage can be lowered to avoid to much movement speed in the game but sprint is not often used in battle. How can it be that Heavy Armor can have the same movement speed in battle than a medium armor toon. I think in general the Armor skills are in a good place however I cannot reconcile that movement speeds between heavy and medium is the same. What do you guys and girls think?

Medium needs increased movement speed but don't change increased sprint speed

I think medium is in a very good spot for solo play at the moment, and only needs really small tweaks.

Perhaps splitting Athletics into 1% movespeed + 2% sprint speed per piece of med would be enough. Total speed whilst sprinting would be exactly the same as before, but we'd have an extra 5-7% movespeed when walking.

This could allow medium builds to drop 1 swift trait for some other option (more WD from infused, more resists from protective) in order to compensate the deficiencies of med vs. heavy. Or simply enjoy the extra speed, as it is.

Alternatively, just increase the immunity duration of shuffle to 0.6 seconds per piece of med. Another form of mobility that's just as important.

I'd be super happy with either change.

Medium armor need some tweaks, because right now heavy armor has much better passives and there's no reason to go MA instead of HA (except sNB). Increased WD and reduce cost is not enough to compensate user for NOT using HA.

rofl, stop it, the game is already in good spot.
if it need some buff, increase the sprint speed, not movement speed.

I honestly like the fact that there is no longer Speedy Gonzales running around. Prior to Murkmire, there were certain folks that I could NOT, for the life of me, land a Dizzying Swing on... when people are moving that fast that it completely negates a skill that is heavily used, sorry but something needs to change.

On the flipside, I do think the nerfs went a bit too far... hopefully in time ZOS will do some more adjustments.

I prefer to stand my ground and fight regardless if I win or lose.

You want to further increase the power gap between magic and stam in PVP? No thanks. If anything needs a movement bonus in this game, it's light armor.

No. The entire point of the speed nerf in the previous patch was to stop people from bugging the system and because it gave an overwhelming advantage with little to no drawbacks. Now you want to call for a potentially stronger buff to movement speed, with even less sacrifice than before?

What? No.

Why not... As long as light armor gets a buff too.

Light armor does have access to that passive, in fact both light and heavy get access to more of the medium passives than medium gets from heavy and light.
