I'm playing the Thylean Centaur race (from the third-party Odyssey of the Dragonlords module), which has the following trait:
Quadrapedal Stride. Climbing or maneuvering in tight spaces is considered difficult terrain for you.
Since climbing (unless you have a climbing speed) means you move at half speed, would this ability stack with that rule, making it so I move at 1/4th of my speed?
Best Answer
You move at one-third speed.
The rules for climbing, swimming, and crawling state:
Climbing in difficult terrain costs two extra feet of movement, so each foot you climb costs three feet of movement: one-third speed. So it’s worse than half speed, but not quite as bad as the one-fourth speed you originally thought.
