Title: Does IF decrease the movement speed?
Post by: Rico on May 23, 2012, 05:33:30 pm
As title says. I've just heard the rumor and I don't know if it's true.

I mean, I would not be too surprised if it is true because PD lowers your effective archery wpf which I didn't know before a while. Hell, how do you actually know these things? Do you read the code of the game? If yes, how to open it? Please don't tell me that you just read the forums to get those informations, the people posting such stuff must have found this out somehow before and I'd like to know how they do it. I just hate to be informed about everything in such a second-hand way...  :?

Thank you,
Sorin  :mrgreen:

Not going into the code to verify, but IF doesn't decrease movement speed.

Look here  for game mechanics - http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,23607.0.html

WaltF4 and others have done exhaustive and pretty accurate tests to figure this stuff out.  He posts his data and his methods so you can be the judge on accuracy...

But unless you wanna do hours and hours of work I'd take his word :)

Oh, and IF lowering movement speed?  No evidence ive read to suggest that, no.

Thank you both. WaltF4 does not write anything about the movement speed penalty as well. This rumor seems to be bullshit, doesn't it?

Probably.

Only truth to it is that Str is required for more IF, and the more Str you have the less Agi you have (typically), which is required for higher Athletics....

Okay, I was thinking about a direct coherence, but it could be meant in that indirect way: depending on the build, 1 point in IF means 1 less in athletics, just because there are no skill points left. Hell, why can't people explain things clearly?

Thank you very much!
