Talk:Glide Speed (5e Variant Rule)

Your math in the Hippogriff part is off. If they descend 5 feet per turn, but dive 35 feet, you may as well subtract the total amount from the starting height and redo the calculation: 100 ft cliff - 35 ft dive = 65 ft off the ground, 5 feet fallen per turn 65/5 = 13 turns of 30 movement, 30*13 = 390 ft moved in that turn

390 feet moved, not 570 feet, as you forgot to take out that 30 feet drop you included. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Tyyu777 (talk • contribs) . Please sign your posts.

Gliding could have a faster drop rate. I've been converting a hadozee race and found that in 3e they had a glide speed of 40 feet, and could move 20 feet for every 5 feet of descent. Marasmusine (talk) 01:56, 20 October 2016 (MDT)
