With the coming advent of real PvP, increased movement speed would be a very valuable trait to have.
Currently, the movement speed increase is negligible. It should be something like +20% for the armor and +10% for the helmet.
(Balance) Give the Mercurial armor set a significant effect on movement speed

Ok, you're right.
But it shouldn't be unnoticeable.

Any speed gain would
Any speed gain would noticeable when your chasing a target down. Faster swords like the cutter might be able to close the gap during lunges, but you'd have to be at fairly close range to begin with.
Combined, the armor gives around 14% movement increase (I think), which is plenty considering the large degree of melee combat thats expected for PvP.

Uh
If it were 14%, that would be really good and I wouldn't have made this suggestion. But from what I've read it's a 1-2 tile speed gain across a Deconstruction Zone (would have been nice if they had given a percentage).
10% for armor and 4% for helmet would be fine with me. In fact, given that it's listed as "Movement Speed Increased: Low," OOO probably already has movement speed tiers up to Maximum!, so in theory all they'd have to do is bump it one or two tiers.

True, true, the Mercurial Set
True, true, the Mercurial Set DOES need a bump in terms of speed. Mercurial is kinda useless since the movement speed is hardly noticeable.

full mercurial gets you from
full mercurial gets you from right to left of an empty guildhall (where the rails are) in 5-6 instead of 6-7 seconds. another second (or even more) would be cool.

Agree
Mercurail Set is kind of... (something is missing) Not good enough.
I remember that the Quicksilver Set was once gave you the same Speed Movement as the Mercurial Set now.
(it was all low from Quicksilver)
Once the release of the Mercurial set came, i expected to be at least for one of them be Medium at least, or both preferable.

lol
@starlinvf, you already can outrun any bomb before it detonates :)
You have any idea how fast 30% is? Thats like scout speeds.... no one would be able to hit you with anything slower then an Antigua, and you could outrun any bomb before it detonates.
