Run/Walk Speed

[Maestoso]

Does the race of your character determine how fast you can run or walk? Like does it determine your maneuverability? I would like to know because after watching videos it seems tarus are faster than galkas and harder to hit. Is this just an illusion because of their dramatically different sizes?

Nope, race doesn't determine how fast the character runs or walks. Every race runs at the same pace, and the same goes for chocobos as well. So far the only thing that can make you run differently is the THF's level 25 ability Flee, or the negative version Gravity/Heavy/Curse which slows down the character.

Hmm I thought Bards had a song that helps run faster than normal, I might be wrong though. If you have any info on this please feel free to throw your 2 cents in. Thanks

Bards have a song that allow party members to attack faster (March). Other than that, I don't think they have anything else that enhances movement speed.

Oh yes, and Cobbi just told me in-game, but it seems the ninja's AF boots give a walk/run speed boost at night. Pretty neat. O.o

I appreciate the response. I thought that race didn't make a difference in attack/run/walk speed, but there always seems to be one jack ass on a board that is convinced that it does.

:biggrin: Good thing I'm choosin to be THF/NIN combo(or NIN/THF whatever). x.x these long distance walks are the only thing makin the game unfun. =) Although when youre in a PT and following someone, its not that bad.

Well........ there is a Dash move which will increase yur speed but u need a magic scroll to use it but I would jus go w/ a Chocabo for long trips.
