Working on it!!!
The increase is a % of the flight speed so normal epic mounts that are 280% flight speed get their speed increased by 20% of 280 which is 56 so the speed with crusader aura is 336.
If you have a 310 mount then it’d be 62 so the speed would be 372%
If you have a speed addon/weakaura like I do then instead of it being 336% it’d be 436% since 100% is running speed (at least for me)
Ok, but the 436% is just wrong. And the others might be if there’s a hard-cap, which I have no idea if there is.
Yeah, I’m not sure if there’s a cap but if there is I don’t really see it being an issue.
The math is based on that a riding mount’s posted speed ignores your base 100%
base speed 100%
60% mount = 160% speed
310% mount = 410% speed
ergo, your mounted moving speed on a 310% mount is 410%. If that is increased by 20%, you get 496%.
Edit: I am also skeptical of the actual speed in game posted in this thread, but based on the previous conversations, that is where the numbers are coming from.
It increases it TO that speed, not BY that speed. A 310% mount goes at 310% speed. If you then add crusader aura you’re going at 372%.
Although it’s really just a matter of semantics.
Personally, I’m still of the opinion that Crusader Aura “increases your mounted speed by 20%” means 310% > 330%. Not 310% to 372% or 396% (depending if the multiplicative stat is only added to the 310% or the entire 410% mounted speed)
I guess my only solution is to fly from point A to point B and time it and see how the speed is applied.
That part there is no question about. It’s multiplicative, not additive. 310 would go to 372, for example.
Only true for mining, druids are still BiS for herbalism, and there is never any downtime at all for mounting.
Yeah, Undying was part of it.
Even if people misses Naxx because “too hard” lol, Ulduar 10 is easy

Now I’m not so sure. So I have a druid with 280% flight form and a paladin with 280% mount and crusader aura.
I flew up the golden light spire of shat and pointed myself to auchiendoun for a landmark. Pointing the the left most spire of Auch, I flew from the golden light spire and it took me 46.8 seconds to fly there. (and about the same time to fly back).
I went on my druid and it took me 55.6 seconds to fly there (and about the same time to fly back).
55.6 / 46.8 is 1.18.
So given my imperfect reaction time to start the timer and picking the exact same course, thats about a 20% increase.
But a movement speed of 4.72 is 24% more compared to 3.78. Maybe i need a better starting and ending monument to remove more variables.
EDIT:
Okay, so the 372 (or 472 with base movement) is based on the 310. Its 356% (or 456%) on a 280% mount + crusader. 4.56 / 3.8 is 1.2!
So I’ve learned it is multiplicative of your mount speed + base movement speed.
You will get to your destination 20% faster with the crusader buff. I feel knowing that, that I’ve always “known” it was multiplicative even if in my brain i was convinced I was only going 300% speed this whole time. Like it feels like you are 20% faster, not 5% faster (from 4.0/3.8).
And I will tell you now:
A lot of druid farmers are going to pay absurd amount of gold to get the Glory of Raider / Glory of Ulduar Raider only to get the 310% mount achievement.
