[edit] shouldn't it be "Windborn_ Speed"?

Borne = supported by. Windborne = supported by the wind. -- Brains12 \ Talk 16:51, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Nerfs to every other ele running skill...

With all the recent nerfs to the other ele running skills, is there any possible chance of this skill seeing use now? Although I suppose Storm Djinn's Haste is still better than this >.< Silavor Image:UserSilavorSigIcon.png 00:08, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

10e cost = FAIL. 1s Cast = FAIL. 10s Duration = EPIC FAIL. No, this skill will never see use outside of the most epic of noob bars. — ( ɔ \ ʇ ) uɐɥʇıǝɹ 14:57, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
I'd like to see 5 energy and 3/4 cast time. Halogod35 19:46, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
Imo it would be a more widely used skill with just 5e and keeping the rest of the stats (maybe lengthening the ench length at higher end by about 4s would do). --Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.pngAlex 19:45, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
It's fine the way it is really. If you make it 5 energy, it becomes like an overpowered make haste, powering up monks in splits so they kite all the way. They maybe should buff either the duration or cast a bit, but just minor and wouldn't make this skill give play in proper PvP. Unexist 17:54, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Usage of skill

This skill isn't meant for self use, hence the high ene, casting and rech. It's more of a party support spell for tactical measures. Horheristo 17:17 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, an ele could use this on a flag running war, since it's such a fast movement boost.

Well, back in the Prophecies only days, I think there were only a small set of skills that actually gave you +33% faster movement. Armor of Mist, Dodge, Illusion of Haste and this come to mind. Escape and other elite warrior stances that were around then still only had the +25% faster boost. So, giving +33% IMS to an ally was a strategic advantage than most of the +25% IMS self-speed stances/enchantments. I agree that this could use a buff to bring it back into what it was then, a support skill. Slap it on your backline to help them kite and such. Currently it's outclassed by "Make Haste!", which is essentially the same idea this skill is. -- Luigi Image:User Luigi Sig.jpg (T/C) 21:40, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
