Horse speed

The new system sucks!!!!

The difference between the regular horse speed and sprint horse speed is almost nothing!!!

My horse speed in general is slower as well!!!

Why are there two places to increase horse speed in the champions points and there effect doesn't seem to be worth the cost?

    What is the status of your mount speed training, and what buffs do you have? Many combinations got faster, although in some cases not by a realistically noticeable amount. When you have all applicable buffs, the speed increased, albeit very slightly.

    And where is the second CP boost to riding speed? Gifted Rider is one. Note that Steed’s Blessing does not affect mounted speed, so you will not see any increase there with that node.

    Possibly you are mistaking the animation slow-down for an actual speed slow-down.

    This has been evaluating and discussed many months ago and the mounts travel at the same speed but the legs animation is slower.

    Therefore it is deceptive. You feel that you are not going as quickly as in the past but it's simply an illusion. The measured actual mount speed remains the same with max Riding Speed +60% and Major Gallop +30%. Also, Gifted Rider adds +10% mount speed.

    Put it all together and it is quite fast.

    With U45 Major Gallop at 30% was just reduced to Gallop at 15% to compensate for the fact that the starting mount speed was increased. Console will still be on the old system until the update is launched there.

    Gifted Rider is additive with Gallop and then that sum is multiplicative with the sum of base speed + training + sprint (as applicable).
