Speed

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

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 [[#Buffs|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.

Buffs

The following Buffs decrease or increase the Player Speed. All three of these special-effect buffs can be simultaneously active, and can stack on top of two +1 Speed buffs from food and drink.

Image	Name	Effect	Cause	Duration
	Adrenaline Rush	Speed (+2)	Killing an enemy while wearing a Savage Ring	3s
	Slimed	Speed (−4)	Being hit by a Slime	2.5-3s

Terrain

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.
