Please do something about boots...

Movespeed is mandatory on boots, just end of story if they don't have movespeed you can just auto trash them. I've been magicing up and identifying every boot that is for my type and even some that aren't and the amount of boots with movespeed that makes it worth trying to make rare is astronomically low...

Then when you factor in the other effect you may want like resistances and getting even decent boots is epicly low...

My first character got lucky and found a decent 25% movespeed, my next 2 or 3? characters are running on 10% movespeed because I can't find anything better... full campaign and nothing better then 10%...

This isn't a sportscar game, all right?

If YOU need for some reason to move faster than speed of light, then you are very welcome to go play PoE 1 with all that stupid Flame Dash.

Players who want more movement speed are usually those complaining to dying too much and needing more portals... we can wonder why.

Movement speed is fast enough, maybe even too much.

I can't tell if this is a troll post or someone who just hasn't played endgame yet/enjoys taking 10 minutes to walk across a map.

No, he is right.

movespeed is not only traversing map but also your ability to dodge attacks by moving out of the way.

so kindly before making arguments in your head based on other topics on the forum, kindly do consider everything.

While I agree that I don't want to see PoE1 levels of speed, this is not what this is about...

I am finding 10+ rare pairs of boots per map. A map now takes me about 5 minutes to complete. Boots are one of the very few items I pick up due to wanting some specific mods - str,MS,Rarity,Chaos Res. I suggest focusing more on either trading for a pair to help your clearspeed, or sacrificing some attributes on your current boots, to ensure you always have a 35% pair.

I only ever play 1 toon at a time, and so I also don't understand the perspective that you should have found 3 great pairs of boots within 5 weeks. It can take months of farming to get a single mid pair in PoE1.

You're not playing SSF because you would have already told us 5 times by now if you were, so I suggest just trading for now until you find some.
I'm struggling to come up with new goals to keep me playing this game.

You should honestly pick up all rare boot bases you like... I've found around 5-6 boots ive sold for dozens of divines.. boots are one of the best selling items in the game.

Also, you need to realize builds that use Temporalis do not use movespeed generally. So rares with high life, rarity, resses are sought after also.

Just a heads up.

Higher the player move speed, harder it is to balance the game and more common out of nowhere instadeaths become because those become the only things killing players. Mobility in most games is an extremely powerful stat and devs should be careful when they adjust its numbers.
