So maybe I'm going crazy here, but I notice that my bishop and SI mule's character movement acceleration is faster than my hero's. All of my chars have max 140 speed and 123 jump, yet when changing direction, I notice that my hero accelerates to max speed slower. You should be able to observe this when rapidly changing directions with left right arrow keys. The hands stat may or may not be related, because my BS has ~900 hands, my SI mule has ~600 hands, and my Hero has ~100 hands. Maybe it's not the hands stat, and instead related to NX equips/effects? Am I taking crazy pills, is this something that is already known?
that could possibly be snowshoes/facestompers' effect when worn. similar to how they prevent sliding on snow, you can kind of tell a difference when changing directions too.
Common to popular belief, only Snowshoes and not Facestompers have the "quick turn/no slipping" feature. I am still curious to find out if the 10% event scroll that adds prevents slipping adds this instant turnaround to any shoe tho!
