Do you speed?

  • With the 30% speed talent for killin stuff and the 10% from minor speed on boots, do you bother with SL gems? (pure F2P only, so no healing gem to consider)
     
    You can make the SL gem with only 1 SL jewelcrafting, so there's no real reason to not have it. You only need around 50 SL ore to get enough +1 gems to max out speed. (400-500 ore if you want to shoot for +2 gems)

    Base 160% movement speed is a world apart from 110%.

    Personally, I bother myself a lot with the speed gem. That said, I also habitually overstack speed buffs, so I have a problem.
     
    I really miss in DF when the gems were +3% and +5% move speed. They got nerfed into complete uselessness.

    At 10-11, you only need the move gem and 5 others (ideally healing but not on F2P). That's not much for +50% movement.
     
    I can't stand going back to high level chars when having sub time cause they feel so slow after getting used to SL gems.
     
    I only need exactly 25% movement speed. Whether through enchants or gems, maximizing damage is the priority.
    When facing high-intensity enemies that need to be taken down quickly, I find those extra movement speed stats feel like a burden.
