first of all this isn't an auction or a price check just wondering how much difference a +16 speed tape makes to pikeman, as a swordsman speed tapes are the be all and end all, but as a fencer there pretty much irrelevent so was wonding if as a master pikeman a +16 speed would be of any use to you, or is it meleey a good grinding item?

They are more valuable than any other Polearm SEAs to me... Accuracy would be next in line, but not as valuable to me...
That would make me hit my speed cap...

Before you try to put that tape in a shirt or what notI am pretty sure you have to find a tape higher than that +19 droid mod in order for the speed to stick. I believe if you put a +1 in there you will just overwrite the +1 to a +19 and the speed will go away. Good luck though!

Actually, it doesn't matter what the first tape amount is, as long as it is the same skill as the one that needs to be blocked out... Right now the skills of same name do not stack, so it could be a +1, -1, or +25 in the the droid skill and the +19 from this SEA will not show up and pass to the next highest...

Is this experimentally verified? Here's a thread with a similar problem where they're trying to get med exp to stick even though there's a higher cloth repair mod on it.
