momentum - damage increase by 10 * current movement speed
defiant - damage increase 25% reduce damage 25%. plus damage per hp% missing
i saw in the stat page that max movement speed is 50% so does that mean that max damage increase from momentum is only 25%? assuming momentum(5). if its the case should defiant be better?
that is the base for momentum. if you have +4 sets. it will be 50 * current
Momentum 
But it really depends on your build
how is momentum better? i dont know how computations on affixes work. i have adventurer set so i have 37.5% DMG + 37.5 MSpeed. and i pair it with momentum so its 37.5%*50% cause of +4 set so it’s 18.75% additional dmg. should it be better to pair adventurer with defiant because it has a fixed 25% dmg increase instead of 18.75% from momentum? for momentum to gain 25% i need to add at least 12.5% movespeed in one of my equipment to get the 25% dmg. am i wrong with the computation and max movement speed?
Momentum is a good decision if you can max your Move Speed
On the other hand, Defiant is also a good choice, but it’s quite risky. It works great within the Arena 
Base movement speed is 100%. Max movement speed is 200% (100% +50% static +50% buff). Thus, you have 137%*50%=68.75%, I think.
the movement speed in stat page is just buff? what is static?
I’m not certain. But it makes sense that base movement speed should be 100%.
Well, i dont know what class you char is. I’d get momentum if you have a primary or special skill that boosts movement speed and if you have other Set affixes or talent that gives you additional SM.
example for warrior. sprint, knightscharge whirlwind gives + MS.
Zealotry Set boosts MS and Zealous Talent adds MS
my class is rogue btw
gold find for? or just to farm gold?
movement speed cap on stat page is [50%]. that cap only count direct boost m.speed like legend affix m.speed, mythic stone flight and Dexterity from heroic. so basically u need 2 legend affix move speed. 1 flight and 20 dexterity to have 50% m.speed.the hidden value/Max cap for M.speed is 100%. that another 50% is for indirect boost like sprint skill, zealous talent, zealotry set affix, advanturer set affix eth~. those indirect need certain condition to active like using sprint skill. equip hammer, max hp above 75% loot gold eth eth.
If u ask me what better, i would say both. and if u ask what better to equip i would also equip both. lol. more multiplying more damage.
its a farming equip. so i can max loot.
does the m.speed of adventurer count as direct or indirect boost?
why ask when i already tell. read my previous reply back. slowly~
sorry missed that one. thanks
Here, some very basic maths both at rank 5:
Momentum - increases DMG by 50% * MS. ppl have a base MS of 100, so the MINIMUM bonus is 50%.
Defiant - increases DMG by 25% + (25% * missing HP), the MINIMUM bonus is 25% while the MAXIMUM bonus is just around 50%!
The obvious choice between the two is Momentum.
thanks for clearing that up!
Why not bioth
