PvP Stats

[noobero]

Why is movement speed considered as a PvP stat? (Sorry for noob question :P)

[darkwater887]

so you can kite the melee class(in case of ranged classes) or get close(melee classes).

the higher your movespeed, the more agile you can be in combat: enter fights quicker to a limit where you surprise your enemy (slayer set + slayer sprint for rogues is a nice example), or leave combat quicker, running out of range of your opponent so you can heal up and go back in without dying.
Or to crash some people's flashplayer by walking too fast passed them ^^
