beetle run speed
 

I dont think this was addressed but as of a few months ago i remember this was not in place so i apologize if it was already changed, but some (or all?) beetle type mobs are supposed to run slower then others, you should be able to outrun them without sow.

I know low level fire beetles definitely are included, I clearly remember how easy it was to outrun them

Looking for sources now - heres one from alla (a comment on an unrelated mob who also may need run speed changed)

The elder of these creatures, as all muddites, run much slower then other races, and therefore can be avoided if neccessary - their run is slower even then the skitter of Fire Beetles.

These things are very good exp to kill. As a necro, I killed these things and got really good exp. And it was easy to run from them if you get in trouble because they are very slow

Fixed, pending update.

Most beetles will run slower than before. This change does not affect higher level beetles in zones such as soldungb and sebilis.

Muddites will run slower.
