Evade Distance and movement speed

[Alzakiel]

Im i the only one who feel like Evade distance is has fast than the +20% movement speed from chips ?

[Aemony]

I don't but I know others do as well. Also I think that the FPS unlocker affects the distance in some way.

[Alzakiel]

Well i dont have the fps unlocked cause anyway i don't even have 60fps. But since it seem to take sometime before hitting ''max speed'' when you run. I tend to think mashing R2 with some Evade distance up chips to be faster lol.

I had Movement speed chip...
but I actually dont know if I even needed it...

Since you probably ever ''use'' it when traveling.

I used a +4 Movement Speed and was fine with that. I think it was even possible to win the final stage of the SpeedStar quest as well with it.

Urgh that last race, he alway beat me by like a few milisecond -_-... Got myself 200% evade distance and the 20% movement speed chips just in case, but i still have a hard time.

Yup evade distance is faster. I remember in the race quest I beat the last race tapping evade all the way. Just running with 20%+ speed couldn't get there in time no matter what. Your evade speed will always be faster than running. Adding distance just decreases cool down. If you ever played as a2 with the engine blade you'll realize with evade distance chips you run much much faster.

Didn't play with a2 yet, but i guess that must be in route C But just with 9S/2B i kinda see it.

Actually, it would. I only had the Movement Speed +4 (+12%) plug-in chip when I beat him, and I wasn't even aware that there was an item that granted you bonus movement speed as well.

The trick is to minimize the air time when you fall of that cliff at the beginning, by using a heavy air-to-ground attack and then dashing immediately before hitting the ground. This keeps your running speed up to 100% throughout the whole race.

I believe I won over him with around 50-100ms at most, but that was simply by running and dashing only after a fall or jump.

Edit: That whole chain of quests where actually the first one I beat, at like lvl 10 or something like that.

If you have problem with Speedstar, try using Speed Salve. ^_^
