[Bard] JBoots worth it?

[Caridry]

Specifically for swarming, but also in the long run.

Totally worth it in my opinion. Selo's win hands down, but if it drops or when you have to run through an indoor zone, you will be glad to also have jboots

[Caridry]

Is it easier to swarm with jboots speed, as its one less song to twist, and less risk of speed dropping?

Jboots is like perfect kite speed, and its a flat move speed bonus vs selos that will change speed every lvl. Once you get used to the jboot speed you never have to relearn ur spacing or w/e

Or just strafe run, which incidentally is very close to JBoot speed.

Complete waste - just buy a few SoW potions for the limited times you will ever need non Selos speed

Unless money really doesn't matter. I just leveled a new Bard to 51 and I've used two clicks off a potion.

If you're getting run speed from a constant source, that's one less thing you have to twist. I used to get really mad at bards putting in for VP sow katanas, but later learned that long duration run speed buffs are useful for bards too! Get jboots. There's no class that won't benefit from them, if only as a dispell junk.

100% worth it imo. I put a pair on my bard at 15 and it makes everything so easy. It's a constant speed, no need to worry about selos all the time, instant cast so if it fades mid kite no problem.
