Hi.

I'm fairly new to this game, and just got a speeder rank 1. But riding it doesn't seem to increase the movement speed at all.

 

Is this a known bug??

 

Many thanks in advance.

What do you compare the speed to and have you maybe toggled between walking and running (the / key from the NUM pad)?

Walking speed is slow both with and without speeder. If you have running active you are faster on speeder than by foot.(With the exception of one certain tree shaped mount )

 

Rank 1 is the first speeder piloting rank and the slowest too, to be faster you'd have to get the higher ranks.

I'm having the same experience. I checked, I'm not toggled to walking, but my speeder if the same speed as my running with the 35% run buff. I timed running between two points, and then timed it with the speeder, and there was basically no difference. Definitely not what you'd expect between 35% and 90%.

There does seem to be some sort of boost to 'running' speed in some circumstances. Maybe it's a Guild perk or something. Yesterday, in a flashpoint, I was 'running' as fast as the people on speeders. I don't know why though? 🤔
