I have a Fae Mystic, and it's a nice thing to have the +50 speed boost to get around in the larger areas in Faydwer.  Dropping the AA boost from +6/point to +4 point (down to +40 total) may not seem like much - but combined with the bard boosts incoming, it comes off as if they, the Bards, whined their way into nerfing the Mystic's run speed. I'm all for increasing the Bard's scootability - but I hope the Mystic change might be reconsidered and taken out.  It's a fun spell, and I hate to see fun taken away.  Drop the timer on SoW or make it self-only if there is a true balance issue out there that needs to be addressed.

not to CB ya on this one but im gonna have to agree with the change, dont get me wrong love the run speed but 50+% was too high, not on account of the bards just on account of balance.  40% for a few AA pts is pretty Fing good especially as a fae whos abilities are hampered by riding a horse

<p>I actually never spent any points on this AA line on Aela.  I tried to buy it up in the beta, and everytime i tested it it didn't add to the SOW speed.  Because of that, I was shocked to learn Mystic SoW is 50% with AA, and 60% with AA and Jboots. </p><p> As a Mystic (which I am) this seems abit extreame.  However, I'm pretty sure Taylnn (Fury) is able to get her SoW up really high too, and something about her buffs stack with the Dirge SoW.  That means she can break the 56% max the rest of us can reach with Dirge/Jboots.  </p><p> What is the Max run speed buff for Furys?  This should be considered when looking at the Mystic Sow.  Specifically keep in mind that Dirges don't use Conc to cast their run buff, and they never have to recast it.  The mystic has to cast it every period of time, and must cast on each group member..after waiting for recast.  I actually don't have a problem with a buff faster then dirge if the person has to cast it over and over again.</p><p>AA Dirge:  46% - 56% w/ Jboots</p><p>AA Mystic: 50% - 60% w/ Jboots?</p><p>AA Fury/Warden?</p>
