Flight Speed
This section only applies to the speed of Fly. Hover and Group Fly use different calculations.[1]
Calculating Flight Speed
Feet Per Second
(21.00 FPS base) + ((1 + sum of enhancements) * (18.18 FPS + (LVL * 0.21)))
Miles Per Hour
(14.32 MPH base) + ((1 + sum of enhancements) * (12.4 MPH + (LVL * 0.143)))
Flight Speeds
Speed at Level 14
Enhancements | FPS | MPH |
---|---|---|
None | 42.12 | 28.72 |
1 Flight DO | 45.65 | 31.13 |
Speed at Level 22
Enhancements | FPS | MPH |
---|---|---|
None | 43.80 | 29.87 |
1 Flight SO | 51.39 | 35.04 |
2 Flight SO | 58.98 | 40.22 |
3 Flight SO | 65.46 | 44.63 |
4 Flight SO | 66.60 | 45.41 |
Speed at Level 50
Enhancements | FPS | MPH |
---|---|---|
None | 49.68 | 33.87 |
1 Flight SO | 59.23 | 40.38 |
2 Flight SO | 68.78 | 46.89 |
3 Flight SO | 76.93 | 52.44 |
4 Flight SO | 78.36 | 53.42 |
Note: you cannot reach the flight speed cap through slotting alone.
Notes
- TopDoc's Complete Movement Guide
- As of 8-16-06, Swift, Quickness and Lightning Reflexes now grant a bonus to Flight Speed, in addition to their existing Resistance to Flight Speed debuffs.
- Also, on 8-16-06, there was a reduction to endurance cost for Flight.
- Issue 8 brought with it a 10% increase to Hover's base speed.
