Speed
This article is about the Speed power pool. For information on movement speed, see Limits or Travel Powers.
Overview
Speed is one of the powersets. It is one of the sets of Power Pools available to all heroes and villains. These powers allow you to commit great feats of speed. Most notably Super Speed, one of the four main Travel Powers.
With the 60 month City Traveler Badge Veteran reward, players are able to pick Flurry, Hasten, and Super Speed starting from level 6 in any order without any prerequisite. Whirlwind remains a level 20 power choice, and requires two prerequisites before selection.
