Yes, it feels slower and that is not a good thing. Makes it less skill based, challenging and fun...
If they nerfed speed probably is because they found players are chosing more agility builds than strength, this was starting to be like everybody is ninja now. I have seen people in good armours spaming, jumping and killing like if they were hacked monkeys XD
If people use it a lot,,, Dev nerf it.... this is crpg policy for the moment XD
