Barbarians gets 10% extra speed. But when he is for eksampel weares boots of haste, will he still run 10% faster than, say a fighter with boots of haste?

Of course, anyone with a tendency for mathematical masochism is invited now to rack his brains about how NWN assigns those percentages...
(n=standard speed,
barbarian boost,
haste boost)
So, maybe it's
................(n
*1.1)
*2 = n*2.2
....................(equaling a 120% speed boost)
or maybe
................n
+(n*0.1)+(n) = n*2.1
..............(equaling a 110% speed boost)
...well, not that it'd really matter, but I couldn't help nagging regardless.
Anyone volunteering to experiment by doing actual ingame character sprints to find out? Not? Awww...

ok. thanks!
Just a thought, is it posible to get even faster? By taking lvls in monk or some thing?

If you are ar Monk lv 39, your speed would be 130 at least. One level in barbarian would make it 140+Base speed which is 30.
170+ haste=220% (haste gives 50%)
170+ expeditious restreat= 320% (expeditious retreat gives 150%)

*re-reads spell description*
Hmmmm, true. I was under the impression that Haste gave a 100% bonus...
So the question is rather:
................(n
*1.1)
*1.5 = n*1.65
.....................(equaling a 65% speed boost)
or
................n
+(n*0.1)+(n*0.5) = n*0.6
..............(equaling a 60% speed boost)

Didn't know that you could Quote a post into a edited post
Base speed= 30
Barbarian fast movement= 10
Haste= 50
30+10+50=90
Was it this you meant?
in that case, sorry for Quoting

to quote a post in an edited post use the "wrap quote tags" button indor the font color bar to he far right of all those little boxes
i mean that the 50% and 10% bonus will stack to be 60%
if you had 30 speed you would have 48 as a hasted barbarian
the 10% thing in NWN is messed up they shud get +10 feet when in light or medium armor
