Is the +movement speed % worth it?

[tormented soul..]

Im talking about the accessory modifiers. I really wanna max out movement speed, but im confused if its useful or not.

[Fumo Bnnuy n Frends]

if you're into kiting then yes

on the empress of light you may wanna use it

[GrandTickler]

everything in this game is situational. it can be great for some bosses id imagine

Isn't it like that movement speed actually only increases walking and not flying with wings?

hmm not sure but i think it affects every type of movement. i just tried with moon lord legs and i definitely jump higher, while wiki states its a 25% movement buff

I personally like the defense buffs for my vanity items. Having multiple warding items can definitely help you tank some hits. Personally I don't care much for movement speed unless you're just looking to get around the world faster it's not all that useful since it won't help when you're in the air. I'd say just work towards the terraspark boots and you won't need the boosted movement speed anyway.

[!?!]

Probably better to go full warding and just shotgun a swiftness potion if you really need the mobility.

It may be useful, but its more for fun strategies, not a full playthough. Most people use full menacing/warding.

Wiki is slightly off about alot of things and why its not worth relying on it you gotta use your own faculties too or you'll end up bamboozled..

Thing is once you get used to a crazy high movement speed its addicting and really hard to go back. With all modifiers you can get like +50% +60% movement speed its crazy..

You can't go wrong with movement speed. But most people just prefer to use menacing or warding.

Its not useful since movement speed stuff is capped for most things at around 64-81, Your not getting faster than 102, which if your kiting in a straight line is how fast as you get with a mechanical minecart. But they can't make it too fast without making minecarts useless so... yeah.

Yeah but it also greatly affects things like acceleration, momentum, etc to improve mobility. If you just want to move in a straight line you can use hermes, wings, Edit: and 1 movespeed item..

It is, but overshadowed by defense and dmg, you take mov speed whatever you feel like you can't kill a boss with damage alone.

Summoners likes to have menacing to summon and mov speed for the actual battle.

[tormented soul..]

thanks for all the answers guys. Im not lookin to win, Im lookin for fun and speed, so I think ill go with the QUICK on everything.

[Halfshell]

Don't forget swiftness potions exist either cuz thats a decent chunk of speed..
