📋 About This Mod
Removes the running speed increase that the Athletics skill provides, just in case you find the running speed too impossibly quick at high levels. Now you can play with Elys\' Uncapper and boost your Athletics to 200 without fear of running at incredible speeds, lagging it up.
Average Run Speed removes the running speed bonus from the Athletics skill, making all characters move at a base pace. This is a simple gameplay tweak for players who want a more balanced or realistic movement system. With 152 endorsements and 3,574 downloads, it has a modest following despite its age.
