Possible to surpass 25% movespeed with skills?

[windstriker]

Have a short question. Is it possible to reach more than 25% extra movement speed if using fleet footed or WotHF, or do you still stop at the 25% cap? Someone who knows?

I seem to remember Blizz saying there was a hard cap at 20-25 or somesuch.

Best way to test it would probably be to have two monks with

+10% on boots
+10% from passive
+15% from runed WotHF
+5 from runed MoE

Then have the second player skip WotHF, run side by side and see if the monk with stacked WotHF runs any faster.

Yes and no.

Passives and boot bonuses, as well as Mantra of Evasion rune, will not go past the 25% limit. This includes Tempest Rush as well.

However, some skills will. Wrath of the Berzerker and Sprint on the Barb will exceed the 25% cap. In other words, if you are a Barb and had 25% movement speed from items, then activated Wrath of the Berzerker and Marathon, you would have 95% movement speed.

Indeed, if you are a Monk and had 25% movement speed from items, and equipped the Fleet Footed passive, you would still be at 25%. If you used Mantra of Evasion rune, you would still be at 25%. They don't pass the cap.

It's strange.

Hmpf, I really hope they change this eventually. When I get my real godly gear I want to be able to run FAST!

Thanks for the answer!

one thing i noticed is that skills that give a temp speed boost go over the 25% cap. passives and buffs don't. ie sprint on barb as mentioned previously, but also a number of dh skills like smoke screen with displacement and vault with tactical advantage passive.
