Somehow I ended up with knarr 44q ;D its dope with that speed, gonna spend last days swimming in ma boat.wafflecat wrote:My 44q knarr is almost 2 times faster than a rowboat. I'd say 1.7 to 2 times faster from a short lil test I did.

Re: Knarr
Well, as it's not much left to do I did some testing yesterday. It took 27 seconds for our 63q knarr to cross the nearest lake. The same trip in boat takes 40 seconds. So, it's just 1,5 times faster for 63q, though it feels much more.
I might have messed up the timing a bit, but I don't think it's too much. And judging that knarr's theoretical limit is exactly 2 times faster than boat my measurements look to me not too much off...

Sounds about inline with what I'd expect, thanks for the test.Hrenli wrote:Well, as it's not much left to do I did some testing yesterday.

Re: Knarr
not sure you can get to x2 speed, think the speed boost sharply declines the higher q you ge to, prolly not worth going past q50 as the speed boost will be minimal if any.Enjoyment wrote:had q 75 knarr, and it was obviously faster than rowboat, but kinda doubt about x2 faster. Wasn't testing though.
