That's very encouraging data. Showing that Fleet Footed is broken keeps alive my hope that, as you suggested, pet movement is broken and not working as intended.

How did you measure the distanced down to the centimeter?

I noticed that the speeds you measured, 319 m/min and 318 m/min for Normal and Fleet Footed, repsectively, is the same as the speed of a running person (318 m/min).

I averaged your data points rather than using your averages expressed in m/sec. The m/sec units aren't as useful, in this game, as is m/min. Since we are used to measuring other aspects of game quality and performance on a scale where 1000 is the maximum, using m/min has a more intuitive feel to it. Note that the fasted vehicles travel at 1000 m/min. Also, when talking about the slower speeds of walking animals, m/sec becomes decidedly awkward.

Well, your results cheered me up even more than I thought. The broken speeds greatly change the way I play. It's awkward to strike off across the landscape, riding a mount with two pets in tow. Thanks.

Interestingly, it's not a problem to strike off across the landscape with two pets in tow, if the two pets are also mount critters.

Then they can keep up.

But gurrecks? Rep fliers? As slow as a rancor, in the post CU nerfed pet speed environment.

Unfortunately,that wasn'tthe case. If the mount critter has no rider, its speed was measured to be the same as the "broken" speed. I will, however, retest this situation when Iperform the tests again.

Very simple test.

Call out two mounts.

Jump on one and ride away

The second keeps up with you. I've tested this with a dewback and a savage humbaba.

Well whatever the case, I aint trianing my pets with this ability until we find out if it's bugged and if bugged then until it is fixed.

Thanks for the tests.

I'd REALLY like to train this to my CL10 Varactyl, but only when the pet speed issue is fixed. Perhaps Fleet Footed (L1) isn't enough of an upgrade to notice any change? There anybody here with a mount that has Fleet Footed (L2) or (L3)?

I ran into so many Motley Kaduus I was tempted to test this my self by getting a second pet with out the ability to follow me while mounted.......... But Datapad space is limited currently

Did'nt grind the specials I got today.

Thank the heavens for people like Dibble and Emaa... calculating speed tests and comparison charts of various mounts and creatures to finally understand what it is we have before us now.

And thank goodness for Tazz, reminding me why us old time creature handlersbarely have the patience to even to speak about all the numerous problems, let alone trying to fix them after two years...

Maybe its a "combat only" skill.

I had a 2 fewts out at the same time. One was flee footed flewt and one wasn't.

The fleet footed one was most certainly and without question much faster than the other one when I sent them to attack.

Anakin: Master, I think my lightsaber is getting dull. Its not doing nearly as much damage as it used to.
Obi-Wan: O.k. when we're done showing the youglings around the temple, we'll stop by the bazaar and you can buy a new crystal. I hope you've got a couple million credits saved up for this.
Anakin: WHAT?!!?? I don't have THAT kind of cash!
Obi-Wan: Well you could try sharpening it on these younglings. I've got a headache and all their questions are driving me NUTS!
Anakin: hmmm.... Sharpen my lightsaber on younglings...... hmmmmmm.....
Obi-Wan: uh, that was a joke Anakin. I'll spot you the cash for a new crystal THIS time, but next time you're on your own.

Just testing the in combat speeds, senta fleet footed L1dire cat and an untrained gurreck into combat from 80m, they both ran at the same speed and both hit the target at the same time.

Were the 2 flewts freshly called from the datapad? If you'd been using them for a while one of them may have been hit by the pathing bug, (the one when it looks like they are trying to walk sideways and they move really slowly, usually happens after combat).

Failing that it's possible it works with some creature types and not with others.
