Wererat Lycanthrope Speed Buff Not Applying
-
The 20% Movement speed bonus from level 7 Lycanthrope Hybrid form doesn't seem to be applying.
Deshifting and reshifting is occasionally required to apply the skin/claws/bite, so it might be part of the skin related issues.
-
Is there no icon/buff at all for speed movement increase or there is and just doesnt appear like its any different than the 10% one you get between levels 1-6?
Please elaborate further on the second issue.

The movement speed buff shows up. And generally seems present for hybrid form (unless the claw bug happens where you need to play magical shifting chairs a few times for them to equip properly - when this happens, it seems both move speed and DR dont' activate properly until you shift your way into the claws equipping properly).
Additionally, even when the shift seems to be working, sometimes there seems to be a weird bug with other movement speed items: IE if I drink an expedious retreat, I will run SLOWER than what you'd normally run at if you drank one. This Bug I haven't been able to figure out how to reliably replicate it yet, so can't really give you much to go on here.

Actually the movement speed buff doesn't even show up for me.
It doesn't apply at all. I'm the same speed as normal speed mobs.
The same issue might apply to the 10% speed bonus but I didn't notice at the time, it didn't come up.
And yeah, when you use a movespeed buff it seems to cap out at 150% and then remove the buff altogether.

Ok maybe what you're saying is happening to me too and I haven't noticed. Sometimes I do have the movespeed buff showing in character sheet/top right of screen though, and I know it works SOMETIMES because of running next to people without it.
The extra move speed for me didn't seem like it was capping at 150% even though, it was like, mine was only going to 120 or 130% instead of the 150% you'd normally get from a expedious retreat

Seems like too much of a hassle to fix in alot of places
It might be easier to just swap the movement speed bonus for something else, but that would be up to @Prof-Misclick and co to decide -
What if you just made the movespeed increase flat for the 'subrace' application rather than based on which shift they're in. So basically give them barb movespeed, 10% at 4, 20% at seven, regardless of form? IDK much about coding if this is feasible or not, but it seems to me the likely issue is the shifting and it really wouldn't be that much of a buff to just have lycans have the increased move speed in their human form as well.

@chomperchomp it’s hardcoded wonkiness afaik. All classes are capped at 150% move speed except monk. When you use haste/expeditious retreat and it ends, it’s removing your buff as well, so we’d need to create a new lycan move speed afaik.
-
Oh Yikes, that is a mess then.
-
Potential suggested 'fix', reduce shifting time as much as possible. at least this way, a quick shift or two could fix the problem.
-
We're not going to rebalance something because of a bug, however this is very complex and unlikely to be resolved any time soon
