I tried all of them. I move no faster with the songs than without them.

Natural run speed, (with aa's but no buffs) is 171.43. I tried all 4 selo's. Selo's SoT, Selo's Acc Chor, and Selo's Acc all changed my run speed from 171.43 to 165. Selo's RoS did not effect my run speed at all, left it at 171.43. The T2 boots put my run speed at 200. From there none of the songs effected it at all. I can fraps it if you want me to. I have tested this at various times on this server for the 4 or 5 years I have been playing here and it has never worked. I have also tested this on tit, sof, sod, and uf and got the same results. I have also tested this without mq2 loaded up.

Selos works for me. It's the only way my group can keep up with me while using the max run speed clicky.

Did you use the /echo ${Me.Speed} command to find out how fast you are moving? I have never seen it work on EZ.

Yeah, I am hearing others in game saying the same thing. Not sure what the deal is. Tried on 2 different toons that are 2 different races. Odd.

Selo's has stacking issues. If you have the buff bot pack buff (I think it's the BST group buff?), Selo's won't land.

Remember, it does a short-duration speed buff (2 minutes). It's not just the song pulse.

I tried it with and without buffs. It works on other servers but not here. Hell, I have even had to restart my eq client from scratch after losing a hard drive a while back and still no different.

And you're using the second-highest level song, right? The one without lev?

There's an obvious speed boost when I use it.

I used all 4 one at a time. Tried it in every various combination I could think of, (with and without epics, just one epic, etc.).

i remember there being a time when i first started that selo didnt work when i first made my bard but it most certaintly works now. After running around hoh all weekend with fastest travel i outrun my selo'd toons (although only by a very little bit) and anyone whos out of group who has to settle with guide journey is pretty much left in the dust every time. Stupid question but are you using underfoot? Im assuming you are, i remember it worked right around the time i made the switch from SOD, so maybe its based on what client your running?

using that neat little command Xiggie posted i get the following, seems selos and fastest speed are pretty equal

no buffs - [MQ2]200.00
selos - [MQ2] 256.00
fastest run speed - [MQ2] 255.00

Honestly I have no room for selos. Other songs are far more important.....especially Bashful Crusty Asians,  Tempest Blade 3 and stampede of the wee wees. I cant see why would chose a slight run speed buff over the bard's regen song or stampede, tbh.
