The World of Avlis

Well I played my monk yesterday for the first time since the last patch and found to my surprise that Monk Speed bonuses and Haste stack!

I haven't seen this kinda speediness since DM avatar speed. Cross-area run in record time!

A hasted raven is pretty damn fast.

Do barbarian 10% speed inc & Monk speed inc stack too?

Can't multiclass a Monk and Barbarian. Alignment penalty. You can try making a barbarian, and then taking monk levels, but I'm pretty sure NWN actually works in one regard to the whole Monk levelling issue and doesn't let you take levels in monk if you didn't take them at first level. If you take the monk levels first, as soon as your alignment changes from Lawful, you lose all your monk bonuses. Not quite sure if that applies to Barbarians as well, but it shouldn't.

Other than that, if you can manage to level in both while retaining Lawfulness, I don't see a reason why they wouldn't stack, and also stack with haste. Barbarian speed is natural, Monk speed is supernatural, and a function of their training. Haste is magical. Works, by the PnP rules, although by PnP rules, you couldn't make a multiclassed Monk/Barb without a shitload of cheesing involved.

Yes, yes they do

The best thing that made me fall out of my chair was when NWN was first released and I was playing a dwarf fighter who got hasted. That is still the best thing to get me to chuckle .... a short folk whose as wide as he is tall moving his feet so fast you can barely make them out!
