Ring of Wild Hunt in Combat speed may not be working

TechMaybeHic

If anyone has a more capable way of testing. I just went out of combat, hit a buff, and started running to see how far I could get with and without wild hunt. Out of combat, there is a noticeable difference. In combat by hitting a dummy and then running, it looks to be the same distance every time

Nevermind. Got a speedometer and it appears to be right non-sprinting or major expedition. Major expedition and sprinting, the rate is less but it might be because of the order it is calculated? I don't know.

What rates are you seeing? All footspeed is additive, so there is nothing to do with order. (Unlike mounted speed, where Major Gallop and Gifted Rider get added together before multiplying against the sum of other bonuses.)

I was right at 15% with just regular running. Added major expedition and closer to 13 or 14% Would have to just get the speedometer addon and check again

With differences that small, terrain can play a role. There are often invisible interruptions or inclines that can change your actual speed vs. expected by small amounts.

If you can list your total speed with all factors as you add them, we can see if there is something strange going on with the math. It’s not clear if the loss of the percentage point or two is coming from the RotWH bonus, its swift trait (if yours is still in that), sprinting, Major Expedition, or other sources we might not know about (medium armor, CP, etc.). It could be a variation due to terrain, which happens a lot, or due to cap, since you should actually hit speed cap while sprinting (40%) with Major Expedition (30%) and the ring in swift (22%) with Hasty CP (8%), even with no medium armor or any other boosts.
