[[Swiftness]] is a [[boon]] that provides an increase to [[Movement Speed|movement speed]]. Most other effects that provide a bonus to [[Movement Speed|movement speed]] (e.g. certain [[trait]]s and [[signet]]s) do not [[effect stacking|stack]] with swiftness; only the highest increase in movement speed will be applied. See the movement speed page for more details.

Swiftness stacks in duration, up to 60 seconds.

== Version history ==
{{Version history table header|boon|type=effect|hidetext=y}}
{{Version history table row|2021-10-26|General}}
* Positive percentage-based enhancements now display with a "+." For example, swiftness now displays "+33% Movement Speed" instead of "33% Movement Speed."
{{Version history table row|2021-10-05|}}
* Fixed a bug causing duration-stacking boons to be affected by a hidden stack limit of 9, which in some cases could come into effect before stacking to that boon's expected duration cap. This resulted in some boons having a lower total duration than expected. This hidden stack limit has been removed for duration-stacking boons that also have a maximum duration—alacrity, fury, protection, quickness, resistance, resolution, swiftness, and vigor.
{{Version history table row|2021-06-08|General}}
* Maximum duration has been increased from 30 seconds to 60 seconds.
{{Version history table row|2021-05-11|Duration Caps for Boons and Conditions}}
* Duration-stacking boons and conditions now behave consistently. They directly stack durations added from all sources, do not have hidden stack limits, and generally have shorter maximum durations. (30 seconds)
{{Version history table row|2015-06-23|Boon and Condition Conversion}}
* Boon to Condition Conversion: Swiftness converts to crippled for 10 seconds. (+5 seconds).
