[QUOTE="Talcoram Cyndar, post: 6706345, member: 78262"] How does the Barbarian's fast movement work? As written in the 3.5 PHB, the rule says that his speed is increased when wearing no armor, light armor or medium armor and not carrying a heavy load. The examples given however say otherwise. Is there errata on this that I don't know about? any help would be appreciated. Here is the text from the PHB: [SIZE=2][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua-Semibold][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua-Semibold]Fast Movement (Ex): [/FONT][/FONT][/SIZE][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua-Semibold][SIZE=1][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua-Semibold][SIZE=1][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][SIZE=2][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua]A barbarian’s land[/FONT][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=2][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua][/FONT][/FONT][/SIZE][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua][SIZE=1][FONT=00CelestiaAntiqua][SIZE=1][SIZE=2]speed is faster than the norm for his race by[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]+10 feet. This benefit applies only when he is[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]wearing no armor, light armor, or medium[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]armor and not carrying a heavy load. Apply[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]this bonus before modifying the barbarian’s[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]speed because of any load carried or[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]armor worn.

When wearing[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]medium armor or carrying a[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]medium load, his speed drops to[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE][SIZE=2]30 feet.
