<p>It doesn't stack with pathfinding either.</p>

And I think that list is basically Racial Runspeed Buffs, The Direct AA runspeed buff, and MAYBE sprint... but not sure on that one.</p>

If you examine it, you'll notice it says in combat run speed, thats not the same thing as run speed, so no it wont be noticed out of combat, once you enter into combat, you might notice the effect.

[Lethe5683]

<p>Not sprint either.  The only thing it stacks with for me is runspeed from AAs.</p>

[Anastasie]

<p>The Diamond Rod enhances MOUNT speed - so it will not affect in-combat or out-of-combat run speeds. It will make your mount faster.</p>

[Nebbeny]

Incorrect, it enhances mount speed by 5, and in-combat run speed by 5. Oh and incombat health regen by 15. It will make your mount faster, you run faster in combat, and regen health faster in combat, so it will affect in combat run speed

It is the Boggstrutter walking stick that is causing it not to stack, as that item does not stack with anything other then AAs and Racials.</p>

<p>as far as I recall, the Diamond Rod and Racial runspeed abilites don't stack!! When a friend got one a year or so ago, he had the same issue as halfelf, while others withour racial runspeeds had it working fine!</p>

I dont wear it anymore, but when i used to wear it, it didnt stack with my warden SoW, which is 45%. I'm a halfling, so i have no run speed traditions i have nothing nada, other than SoW and the diamond rod, so either it was a stacking issue with buffs as well, or it simply doesn't work out of combat which i'm more inclined to belive. (i've never had the bogstrutter walking stick either, after the nerf no point getting it when i could just SoW myself)

Sure would be nice to have this stacking, just looted it myself, and I did not see an increase in runspeed either.. Any chance of a fix ?

[peepshow]

<p>Aye, bad choice of words there I guess.. Maybe /feedback is the way to go..</p><p>But either way, 5 % extra runspeed would be nice to have from this item, since it do add to the mount speed</p>
