none of these cases apply to me. it's either someone ninja zapping me with a speed spell (if they exist) or just a plain old bug.

wrong in this case, with 120% speed i sometimes lost people who were following me and often had to stop along the way
I know this works in general right after you put the person on follow. Never seen what happens
after you have caught up.

then how do you explain that i had the bonus two days ago and yesterday was back to 100% without even spending any points on stats
I don't. That point was for others saying characters get faster as they level.
None of what I was saying was for the 120% speed you saw. I was just posting what I knew/heard in the hope that it might help find an explanation.

in general yes, but not in this case, they start lagging behind right from the start

Basically, I don't know how or when it happened, but all the sudden I've noticed I have 120% speed. Not 100% like I've ALWAYS had, but 120%. Seeing as I won a race wearing full heavy armor carrying my pike by a LONG SHOT
, 120% is definitely much faster. Removing all of my armor, jewelry, weapons etc etc I still have 120%. I pretty much emptied my bag which was quite full when I noticed my speed increase, and nothing changed. Does anyone else have this or is it just me? I suspect it must be a bug somewhere because I don't know what I would have done to become faster. Any ideas would be helpful.
Ha i went 200% one day

Heh, one of my mates can outrun a Puny goari (a big feat on the n00blands) and hasn't shown any signs of his speed factor dropping back down to normal for a day or two...

Ok, so i guess the speed thing is a bug. Or is it? Could we get a GM to comment on this? On side note, this morning i got stuck between a cart and some pots and they got to me within 2 minutes.
Great customer service Nevrax, keep up the good work.

See today's patch notes, it's a bug.

Actually i've run iton this situation myself. Was on noob island grouped with a friend for some hunting. All of a sudden she asks how i'm running so fast, I turn around and i'm so far ahead I can't even see her. Checked stats and such and I was up at 140%. No clue how this happened. We started comparing stats and she was higher in every stat cataglory. This speed stayed with me for approximately 1-2 days, then next thing you know, back to the crawling 100%. And let me tell you after 2 days of 140, 100 is really crawling.
