Speed comparison: Fist of wind vs swiftsong vs sprinting, etc

[TheGlow]

Anyone happen to know if anyone has numbers on movement speeds?
How fast is a mount vs swiftsong or Monk with Fist of Wind on? Does sprinting affect that?

I think I turned on Fist of Wind in town and barely gained a guy next to me.
Didnt compare other stuff but it got me thinking. I used to switch to archer in town just for the swiftsong.

Sprint > Swift > Fist of wind from what I've seen at BrayBray.

If I had to throw out random numbers:

Mount: +100%
Sprint: +50%
Swiftsong: +20%
FoW: +10%

But mostly basing that on "feel" and not hard side-by-sides or timing. Also Sprint seems to override Swift and maybe FoW. Not sure if FoW+Swift stack, and I think mount is "capped".

Sprint is as fast as a mount, that's for sure. I've ran beside other people on a mount multiple times without being left behind at all.

And I'm pretty sure I've passed sprinting people while I'm mounted.

Also Sprint seems to override Swift and maybe FoW.

Swift + Sprint seems to outrun people with just sprint in CT so idk.

I would be surprised if Fists of Wind was 10%, seems a lot more lackluster than that. Probably 5%.

[Seravi Edalborez]

Oh I thought Fists of Fire was also 10% like Fists of Earth for some reason, which is where my guess came from. Might not even be in denominations of 10% like I'm guessing.

From what I've seen sprint is only slightly faster than swift. I know if I have it up and somebody in the group sprints, they pull ahead slightly but not by much. If I also use sprint with swift up, I'll match their speed so it doesn't seem to stack.

Anybody know offhand if character speed is stored client side again? With the pos hacking gather bots we saw at launch, it doesn't seem farfetched. If it is, even if the server doesn't accept changes from the client, we could easily put a number to everything and get exact increases.

My instinct from playing archer the entire time is that sprint doesn't stack with swift, and it's only slightly faster. Also have you guys ever looked at your character from the front while sprinting? Their face gets all stressed/angry and their body shows a more stressed running animation. It's cute.

I'm almost positive that Sprint matches mount speed (+100%), and is the speed cap (i.e. doesn't stack with anything else).

I've gotten this impression as well. Similar to Flee & Chocobo in XI.
