Swimming speed bonus

[Raukodor]

Hello fellow turtles

I dont know if its a bug or is how it work

Could make +swimming speed bonus stackable?

In have some items that give +15 swimming speed but doesnt stack

It doesnt broke the game but makes the exploring/leveling much nicer because water quest sucks and is a plus of gather some nice bonusses

The items are

Azure silk belt https://database.turtle-wow.org/?item=7052

Deep striders https://database.turtle-wow.org/?item=80720

Ice pearl of kanek'nuun https://database.turtle-wow.org/?item=60470

Rethress ride crest https://database.turtle-wow.org/?item=40061


I have 3 of those now but dont give +45 swim speed. Could make stackable so can get a +60 swimming speed it total?

[Raukodor]

Ok gathered all the items and none stack

I got +60% swimming speed bonus but only get +15% from one item

Could make all stack??

It would be cool, although kinda useless since there is little interaction with water in the game, unless there is content designed around that. In the way of Echo Isles off of Durotar are - an archipelago of small islands that you have to spend more time and you have to constantly swim between them.

All explorers like me will be thanxs belive me

that's why it would be so cool, the usefulness is more for explorers and world enjoyers, rather than gameplay andies. probably the most notable gameplay implication would be to save a bit of time for the 30 seconds of swimming from feralas nelf island to shore when going to dire maul. And that's sacrificing 4 bag and bank slots to do this.

I fully support this idea.

[Raukodor]

I will sacrifice 4 slots for saving swimming time without doubt

[Fornow]

I wasn't even aware that swimming speed doesn't stack. Is it like that in og vanilla client too?

Either way I don't see why it shouldn't stack and it would be a neat reward for all of us who like to go out of their way to collect these rare items with unique bonuses.

[Raukodor]

So? More thoughts?

Someone against it?

[Raukodor]

Can i revive this post? I really love the idea

[Geojak]

There is also a github issue for this

[Lexiebean]

You missed an item. Captain's Overcoat

For a total of +75%.

I'd love it if these stacked!

[Raukodor]

Oh in have to get this!

You could also get Hook of the Master Angler from the fishing tournament. There's also Swim Speed Potions for a temporary boost as well.

*Bump Thread*

Swim speed is intended to stack, I'd have to fish a 2005 test of it from vanilla, it does stack on other vanilla servers I've played, regardless, it is arguably useful:

From questing comfort to WPvP , a well prepared player will have this set on keybind and swap in Grom'gol Base camp for example in case he's outnumbered, if chased,he will have a huge mobility advantage, and people chase, trust me.

In AB as earlier described, with quick gear swaps it is an advantage as well.

If Turtle-WoW-Staff could please look into this.

Thank you for your time and dedication,

[Raukodor]

I hope they made my watery dream true

[Markuis]

If you made the effort to collect all those items then why not.

[Raukodor]

Yeah but this one is temporary

For others who stumble upon this post wondering if items stack, this seems to have been changed, and +swim speed items do stack now.

[Houseperenolde]

My enchanting alt has two of these items (+Hydrocane), but not enough to realize they don't stack.

Please let them stack so I can do an elven impression of a barracuda.
