Is the "Quick" trait from UA worth the HP cost

[Terath Ninir]

Is it an enhancement bonus to speed? If so, it wouldn't stack with boots of striding and springing, which are only 5,500 gold, and I wouldn't get the feat. But if they do stack, I think it would be worth it.

It is that lovely of lovelies, an unnamed bonus. So it stacks with everything.


Stalker0: being out of range of your enemies by being faster than them is *better* than hit points.

Given that it's an unnamed bonus/increase, it stacks with everything.
Yes, it's worth it for a character planning to optimize movement.
It's actually remarkably good for what it does, since it is unaffected by encumberance, making a dwarf with the quick trait obscenely fast in medium/heavy armor, 'specially if it's a barbarian dwarf. Speed is equal to other medium chars, HP equivalent, Fort saves better, oh, and dwarves just abuse their resistance to encumberance.

If you can either take the HP hit, or get Improved Toughness, and want to be able to outrun most equivalent chars, go for the quick trait.
