Lancer Knightz (Guild)/Sword Movement Speed

This page is part of the Lancer Knightz data collection project. The data here measure knight movement speed while charging various swords, at various levels of movement speed increase (MSI). These data were collected by Bopp (where marked with ^B) and Donkeyhaute. This page is a work in progress.

Procedure

The test takes place between two specific points in Emberlight, such that the total distance is 51 tiles. Only 5-star swords are tested. The tester charges his or her sword, runs the 51-tile distance, and records the time taken. The test is repeated until it seems to settle on an answer. All results (not just the average) are reported to Donkeyhaute, who enters them into a computer program that outputs the summary tables below.

Summary of Data

For each sword, at each level of MSI, the table shows the average seconds per test run, rounded to the nearest tenth of a second. The first entry of the table is the baseline speed of a knight who is not charging any weapon.

Analysis

Once the data are in place, the analysis will nail down how much each level of MSI speeds up knight movement, and which weapons are conspicuously slow or fast.
