Aug for speed, get better gear, or don't use a slow ship. |

But is it -v or +v? You must include directional information with vector quantities! |

This and Zen of Capacity wouldn't be so bad, actually. +100 speed is too powerful, though, so it'd have to be capped lower I think. |

If this is going in it should probably be a % bonus based on your original speed (doesn't multiply at all with anything EXCEPT for negative effects, unlike zen of range). Speed seems rather broken as a fixed bonus though. I'd rather have an extension of the current bar skills or something. |

How about four zens!? Zen of the north, south, east, and west! Getting Zen of the West makes you go faster to the west and slower to the east ^_^ |

Bar Skills people... Bar skills. (Which Jeff is looking at increasing in the future) |

Zens are interesting (not necessarily balanced) because they are absolute bonuses. I'm not sure whether small, SP-costly absolute bonuses to hull and speed are warranted but that would definitely be a approach from the usual bar skills. |

adding a hard cap on speed is just a no in my opinion. increasing speed to ships that have low speed as a direct balancing perspective only breaks it. for instance the Unforge. |

+1 speed per zen, only goes up to 25 and costs 4 times the sp per skill. |

As Beel says, it'd be amazing for ships with low base speed (thinking Prawn here) and also for Zerkers, assuming it wouldn't be affect by augs and class skills. Perhaps a bit too amazing, but still... |

Post subject: | Re: Zen of Velocity |
a +25 speed boost on combat ships would just be so useful, especially on Ass Behe shms that only go 45 speed :O it would also be a cool credit sink if the zen costed like 1b per level and maybe twice as much sp than the normal zen skills. |
