How Epic Speed Works

Epic Speed increases the character’s speed by 30 feet while wearing medium armor, light armor or no armor. The increase affects normal movement based on that speed, making it much easier for an epic character to cross a battlefield, withdraw, charge or reposition.

Epic Speed Example

A character with a base speed of 30 feet increases to 60 feet with Epic Speed. A move action therefore covers 60 feet, while a double move covers 120 feet before applying any other rules or terrain restrictions.

Stacking and Armor Limits

The feat does not stack with speed increases granted by magic items or nonpermanent magical effects. It also stops functioning in heavy armor. The character must meet the Dexterity 21 and Run prerequisites.
