    The Mount Speed Explained

    Hello guys,

    Today i was reading alot about how the mount speed increases with Talents or Guild perks.
    I Found Out that Guild Perk did not stack with any talents or aura`s that increases speed.

    And also i was wondering what my Actual Mount speed would be with different mounts and bufs.

    I found out that my DK was flying 392% it is a 310 mount + 20% dk buf.
    i did this with the command
    /run print(GetUnitSpeed("player") / 7 * 100-100);


    So i figured it out how the mount speed would increases.
    The actual speed of you is
    /run print(GetUnitSpeed("player") / 7 * 100);
    Because running is 100speed, so when u mount ur 100% mount, ur going 200%

    so if we look at it this way, if ur going 310 on ur mount ur going 310 + the run speed = 410
    So when ur calculating at this rate u get this table


    +Run|Mount|Buff|-run|Actual speed as we now it
    -----------------------------
    100 + 100 + 0 -100 = 100%
    100 + 150 + 0 -100 = 150%
    100 + 280 + 0 -100 = 280%
    100 + 310 + 0 -100 = 310%

    100 + 100 + 10% -100 = 120%
    100 + 150 + 10% -100 = 175%
    100 + 280 + 10% -100 = 318%
    100 + 310 + 10% -100 = 351%

    100 + 100 + 20% -100 = 140%
    100 + 150 + 20% -100 = 200%
    100 + 280 + 20% -100 = 356%
    100 + 310 + 20% -100 = 392%


    I didnt find any posts like this and im not sure if this right in a guide section, anyway i was wondering how this was sticked together for a while and found it out now, so i thought i share it with you guys.

    Here is the Excel Spreadsheet for the mountspeed.
    Mountspeedssds.xlsx
    I used the formula
    (100 + M) * (1 +( B/100)) - 100 = Actual mount speed
    M= Your basic mount speed
    B = your mount speed buff

    Not very usefull but fun to know!
    Cheers

    Pretty nice work. Now maybe more people will realize that mount speed increasing effects are multiplicative, not additive.

    Sorry but if ur saying its wrong and dont have "time" to explain it i will assume this is just right.
    or the code for telling you what speed you have is not putting out the right ammount?

    Its correct what goldfire says in this topic, you are just wrong mate.
    And if you don't have time enough why are you even on this forum to tell people they are wrong.

    Well i find it only fair that if you claim someone is wrong you tell what's wrong, as i cannot see why it's wrong,

    You say ur mount speed ur buff,, you calculate,, you come to an answer,, the answer has the same result as the macro that`s shows your wow speed?
    so in what world could it be wrong its like saying that 5*10 = 50 is wrong? it is the same, that answer you can control with calculator, the answer in wow you can control with the wow macro for showing ur speed?

    Just STFU mate, you are not a contributor you are just a smartass telling people that they are wrong when they are NOT.

    Now stop saying goldfire is wrong because he's right, the next time you post a thread please use some common sense and explain why someone is wrong.
    Just saying you have no time is bullshit because it seems you have '' 'nuff '' time.

    Thanx a lot for this job, sad to say how useless it is.
    There is lots of mountspeed addons that show all speed values, talking you exactly which buffs are stacking and which are not, or why are you failing to get netherwing captain and even when some nice trinket is bugged.
    For example, 10% speed buff trinkets for lvl70 chars do not work in swift flight form haha.

    haha thx, but i just wanted to show how it is calculated, to let people see how it works. and not the end result of your mount speed. because there are other guys not like you who dont know how it works as you can see in the previous posts.

    If you're gonna say its wrong and you supposedly know the correct formula.. Then lets see it... If you "..have no time" then don't bother posting unless you have something constructive to add.
