Avatar's Movement on Foot
The quickness of the avatar's movement on foot is described by 3 variables:
- Movement Speed (also known as Move Speed)
- Move Rate
- Current Speed
Movement Speed (also known as Move Speed)
- Movement speed (called "movement" on the paper doll stats) is a baseline measure of how fast you could move if you were to do a standard run on foot (the default hotkey for a standard run is single press and hold of the W key, when in run mode). : Note that this number does not show your current movement speed; it shows your potential movement speed if you were to run in the absence of movement rate modifiers (such as encumbrance or Lavalliere of the Lagomorph).
Move Rate
- Move rate is a modifier (multiplier) that is applied to the movement speed, and is shown on the paper doll as the % in the parenthesis next to the "movement" number.
- Examples of things that can increase the move rate: Lavalliere of the Lagomorph, equipment socketed with the Imbued Jewel of the Lagomorph, Pirate Tricorn Hat of the Cap'n, Carnal Vile Shield, backslot items on which the move rate buff was applied using the Masterwork Tailoring Upgrade.
- Examples of things that can decrease move rate: Encumbrance, entering walk mode (default hotkey is keypad backslash, which toggles between walk and run modes).
For a more complete list of things that effect Move Rate, see Move Rate.
Current Speed
- SOTA also keeps track of a variable called "Current Speed", which is a measure of your current movement pace (how fast you are actually moving at a given time). However, the "current speed" number is not accessible via the standard SOTA user interface (but it can be seen with some player-created tools, such as Companion of the Avatar).
- When moving on foot, the formula to calculate "current speed" is:
- Current Speed = movement speed x move rate
- For example, let's say an avatar has a baseline movement speed of 6.9 with a 140% move rate. When this avatar runs, the current speed would 9.6 (6.9 movement speed x 1.4 move rate = 9.6).
Avatar's Movement When Mounted
Movement statistics described above may work differently with mounts.
