How do you get the Speed Demon Achievement?

[Anxious Chicken]

I was wondering how you go about getting the Mercury-centric Speed Demon achievement. Not familiar with Mercury that much so I am unsure of how to get him to 600 mph movement speed.

Any help is appreciated.

Speed buff+golden bow+ full boots+sprint I think.

Milkweed has the right idea. If you can also get someone with Heavenly agility that is amazing (would need to do so before season 3), as I think they stack. You could also get items under the movement speed category (which also helps his damage due to passive). There are items other than boots, but they aren't normally worth getting except under specific circumstances (lots of slows for example).

I recently did this achievement in an Arena match and it did confuse me for a bit also. From what I remember since there's only 4 Move Speed boosting items besides boots, you actually have to get Talaria boots for the final 15% speed boost out of combat; normal boots (Warrior or Ninja Tabi) don't give you quite enough... I'll post the screenshot of the match that I have.

Edit: Found it. This is all the movement speed items in the game to give you max speed.

I unlock in this way:
Build Warrior tabi,Hastened Fatalis,Winged Blade and Active item - Greater Sprint,your 2nd ability must be on max lvl,its give u ground speed. When you buy these items activate a sprint and get 600+ movement speed. Arena is mode to get this really easy

Ah, so my build was probably overkill because it doesn't tell you when you've gotten the achievement until the end of the match anyway... Oh well, I still did well with it; it was a fun match AND there's no way to NOT get the achievement with that build. :-P

Not necessarily overkill. He does get physical power from speed, though it may not have been an "optimal" build.

Oh it's definitely not a build I would normally use on Merc, that much speed is unnecessary and (as you said) sub-optimal over other items that offer other options. I just wanted to be sure I got that achievement and it worked out well anyway. :-P
