RWBY: Ruby's travel speed

At around 2:25, Ruby is running away from Roman but it is clearly showing that the bullets are outpacing her. Take this how you will, I thought it was just something I should point out.

Keep in mind That RWBY Uses dust rounds SO it's possible for there bullets to be faster then real world bullets

Also as far as i see in that clip Ruby isn't using her semblince to Run not to mention there is visable evidince of other character's moving at MHS speeds and ruby can keep up with them More or less

Well, I do not know the specifics in this case, but we tend to make a distinction between combat and running speeds.

Ruby also usually has her scythe which she uses to propel herself to make her faster.

 

[Drellix]

Just note I have made it travel speed. Combat Speed and Reaction speed have nothing to do with this.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, all of this depends on if there is proof or calculations of Hypersonic+ travel speed. If so, your example may be seen as an outlier, plot-induced stupidity, or anti-feat.

 

[Drellix]

Iirc it came from a combat feat that Yang preformed in the Yellow Trailer.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay, so it was not a running feat then?

 

[Drellix]

I do not believe so.

 

[Drellix]

Wait my mistake. There's a new calc that has them at Hypersonic+ in Travel Speed.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, if there is a Hypersonic+ running speed calc, we can probably see your example as an anti-feat. We generally go with the higher showings.

 

[Drellix]

Fair enough.

 

[Antvasima]

Should we close this thread then?

 

[Drellix]

Maybe hear back from the experts before? Up to you Ant.

 

[The_Everlasting]

This isn't really an anti-feat anyway, as Roman's bullets aren't anything like normal bullets as they're dust-infused.

It's like saying a Cortosis blade in Star Wars is exactly the same as a regular sword.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay then.
