Speed

This article is about the Speed power pool. For information on movement speed, see Limits or Travel Powers.

Overview

Speed is one of the Power Pools available to all characters. These powers allow you to commit great feats of speed. Most notably Super Speed, one of the four main Travel Powers.

Players are able to pick Flurry, Hasten, and Super Speed starting from level 4 in any order without any prerequisite. Whirlwind and Burnout are level 14 power choices, and require two other Leaping Powers before selection.

Power Table

The following table shows which powers are available and at what level:

Power	Level	Effect
Flurry	4	Moderate Damage (Smashing) Foe Disorient (minor)
Hasten	4	Self +Recharge
Super Speed	4	Toggle: Self +Speed (Minor Stealth)
Whirlwind	14	Toggle: PBAoE, Foe Knockback
Burnout	14	Recharge Primary/Secondary Powers

Powers

The following are powers in the Speed powerset.

Burnout

Burnout allows you to instantly recharge all of your Primary and Secondary powers. Burnout is very expensive in terms of endurance, and reduces your maximum endurance slightly for 60 seconds after use. You must be at least level 14 and have two other Speed Powers before selecting Burnout.

Recharge Extremely Long Minimum Level 14 Effects Recharge all Primary and Secondary Powers Enhancements Increase Attack Rate Set Categories None

Flurry

Unleashes a super fast Flurry of punches to pummel your foe. Flurry is so dizzying that it has a chance to Disorient the target.

Damage Moderate (Smashing) Recharge Fast Minimum Level 4 Effects Foe Disorient (Minor, short duration) Enhancements Enhance Accuracy Enhance Damage Reduce Endurance Cost Increase Attack Rate Enhance Disorient Duration Set Categories Melee Damage Stuns

Hasten

You can reduce the recharge time of all powers for 2 minutes. Although Hasten does not cost any Endurance to activate, you can tire easily since your Endurance does not recover more rapidly. After Hasten wears off, you become tired and will lose some Endurance.

Recharge Slow Minimum Level 4 Effects Self +Recharge Enhancements Increase Attack Rate Set Categories None

Super Speed

You can run at super-human speeds! While running at such speeds, you are a blur, and many foes will not even notice you as you speed past them. If you attack a target while this power is on, you will temporarily be slowed to normal speed. You must be at least level 14 and have Flurry or Hasten before selecting Super Speed.

Recharge Very Fast Minimum Level 4 Effects Toggle: Self +Speed Stealth (Minor) Enhancements Reduce Endurance Cost Enhance Running Speed Set Categories Running Universal Travel

Whirlwind

You spin around at an amazing speed to create a Whirlwind around yourself. Any foes that enter this Whirlwind will be tossed into the air. You must be at least level 14 and have two other Speed Powers before selecting Whirlwind.
