The total number of movements a creature can make per turn is proportional to their [[movement speed]] multiplied by their [[quickness]]. As a result, Multiple Legs is extremely effective alongside mutations providing a quickness bonus, such as {{favilink|Adrenal Control}}, {{favilink|Heightened Quickness}}, and {{favilink|Photosynthetic Skin}}. In addition, since [[sprinting]] doubles the number of movements you can make per turn, Multiple Legs can also be effective when used alongside mutations and skills that benefit [[Sprint]], such as {{favilink|Triple-Jointed}}, {{favilink|Two-Hearted}}, {{favilink|Wings}}, [[Conatus]], and [[Longstrider]]. | |||
Since the benefits of movement speed, quickness, and sprinting stack ''multiplicatively'' -- not additively -- creatures can make many movements per turn with a little bit of investment. For instance: | |||
* With Multiple Legs and Heightened Quickness both at Level 1, creatures move 2.76 times as quickly while sprinting. | |||
* With Multiple Legs and Heightened Quickness both at Level 5, creatures move 4.92 times as quickly while sprinting. | |||
* With Multiple Legs and Heightened Quickness both at Level 10, creatures move 7.98 times as quickly while sprinting. | |||

=== Advantages === | === Advantages === | ||
* Grants extra Movement Speed, making running away a far more effective strategy | |||
**At higher levels, intentionally contracting [[ironshank]] can be a viable means to improve {{AV|}}AV without overly compromising mobility | |||
* Allows wearing multiple footwear items, which can grant even more movement speed (or other bonuses) | |||
* Allows the player to more effectively kite enemies | |||
* Grants extra carrying capacity without taking up any slots, unlike {{Favilink|Nylon bodypack|plural}} or similar items | |||
* | === Disadvantages === | ||
* | * Very high cost at character generation | ||
* The extra feet slot means that the player will need to find twice as much of a single armor piece to gain the same {{AV}}AV and {{DV}}DV as they would without the mutation, because {{AV}}AV and {{DV}}DV are averaged across similar body slots | |||
