There are two distinct Speed statistics: Speed w.png Weapon Speed refers to how long it takes to hit an enemy with a weapon; Speed.png Player Speed refers to how fast the player moves. Each can be affected in a variety of ways.

Speed.png Player Speed

The player's base speed is:

  • 2 when walking
  • 5 when running.
  • 6.6 when riding a Horse.

A variety of positive and negative Buffs can change the player speed, as detailed under Food and Drink and Buffs. In theory, five speed-related buffs could be simultaneously active, three positive (maximum +4 Speed) and two negative (minimum -5 Speed).

Finally, speed is also affected by some terrains, but not when riding a horse.

Although terrain and/or debuffs may decrease a player speed, the speed is never decreased below 1.

Food and Drink

The following foods and drinks increase Player Speed. Only one drink-derived buff and one food-derived buff can be active at a given time, so +2 Speed is only possible if the +1 Speed from a drink (Coffee and Triple Shot Espresso) be stacked with the +1 Speed from one of the food items.

Coffee is available at The Stardrop Saloon every day for data-sort-value="300"> 300g, but the other dishes may appear only randomly on Gus' menu.

Three types of terrain can alter the player's speed, but only if the player is not riding a horse.

  • Flooring has a +0.1 Speed boost, but only when located outside on The Farm.
  • Grass has a -1 Speed penalty.
  • Crops have a -1 Speed penalty, but only if the player is running. Seeds do not count as crops.
