        It dropped for me in the Magister's Terrace too but NOT from Kael'Thas himself.

        It dropped from a random mob just before the first boss. Prolly higher drop rate in heroic.

          Of course twinking to the max takes time, and as you said money, not everyone buys gold so there is skill and time put into acquiring the bop items needed to twink, the mats used for the enchants or the gold used to buy them, some of that uber gear you speak of are actually pvp rewards. so those lowbies in their greens can always upgrade once they have pvp'd for a bit.  Or they can learn some wow-economy and farm a little cash and buy the higher end gear themselves. A true twink is also going to sacrifice leveling past that bracket after spending time acquiring said equipment.  So really just because you beat down a big boss with your buddies you feel you have the right to pwn in the Bg's but someone who has spent months tracking down the best gear for their bracket doing run after run in instances to get the drops they need, spent hours farming mats to get the gold needed to enchant it shouldn't get an advantage over someone leveling past that bracket in their lowbie greens? gimmie a break. If bringing down a raid boss somehow gives you super pvp talent maybe you should drop your tier 5 and go at it in your birthday suit. The only real difference between a twink and an end-game epic geared raider in the battlegrounds is a self imposed level cap.

      All the reports I've found say the speed increase is 8% and doesn't stack with any other form of speed increase.

      For anyone thinking of shelling out hard gold for this recipe, I'd suggest passing.  The mats are brutal, especially compared to getting a metagem speed boost or even the boar's speed enchant (which at least uses primal earth).

    For those who would be wondering, this enchant, and the boar's one as well, do NOT stack up with the Arathi Basin PVP boots that already have a run speed on-equip bonus on them. I ran the length of SW Keep barefooted, from entrance to the very back wall of the Battlemasters room, at 35seconds, then simply the pvp boots at 30-31sec, and the pvp boots with the boar speed enchant on them clocked exactly the same as it did without the enchant, so both do not stack.

      i think people would pay over 100g for it but it depends on your server. just start with a high price and lower it if no one buys it. the deposit shouldnt be too much i think but you could definitely get more than you said for it

    Been thinking about this one, and, for Warriors, just so you know, the crit 6 agil adds is approximately 0.21%.  Not particularly sure of the dodge it adds, but I've found stacking agility for dodge on a Warrior is like stacking spirit on one for regen.  Not exactly worth it.

    The difference between Boar's Speed and Cat's Swiftness: 90 HP or 0.21%.  Your choice.


    EDIT 1: Forgot my point-- the point is, if you're in full A1 gear, or a mix of A1, A2, and A3, you're gonna be heading quite a way's above the point where you're going to be worrying about your health.

    This enchant is nothing really to get excited about. Lets see you could get a slight run speed chant for a radiant shard, lesser nether and aquamarine which would cost you peanuts. Tack on another (zomg are u ready??) 6agi and all of the sudden its outrageous mats.

    Be realistic, there are far better enchants out there - this ones for the birds. Unless they patch it to +12agi - dont waste your time.

    I just paid 500g for this and I'm not sure it will turn out to be worth it.  I guess I can afford it.  I'm still saving for epic flying.  The thing is speed increase isn't really good for anything but PVP and I don't know how in demand it will be.  Wish it were Boar's Speed.  The people who would get the most use out of it are hunters and rogues in 10-19 WSG with the fishing boots, which can be enchanted with this.  We'll see how it goes.

      there are lots of PvE fights where movement speed is nice, even if it's a small amount.  I would never pay for this one out of pocket, but I would definitely save up the mats and get it done.

      Any fights where you have to gtfo of any AoE (Archimonde, Illidan to an extent, council etc) or move quite often this is useful.

      I just paid a fortune for this enchant simply so I can get my enchanting to 375. (I've got the cash to spare from being a daily-quest addict.)

      I'm hoping if I do it for free (with player's materials) I'll squeeze a few points out of it.

      I've not had any other recipe drop or appear on AH above 355 for over a month :(

    Ok so I noticed running MgT over and over, I did it normal mode and the engineering recipe for health potion injector dropped from kael'thas, and it was BoP and only visible to the engineers, and then today on heroic mode, Kael'Thas dropped cat's swiftness and I saw that it was BoP and only visible to me, the enchanter.  This coming only a week or so after I paid 500g for it.  Sigh.

    Alright, mine dropped during the quest "Skywing". Never thought, that this thing is worth 500g+. Well, I sold it for 600g buy-out. Guess this baby goes easily on many servers for 800-1000g (even when it's not worth it). Hope this comment helps, to find a estimated price! :)

    Just thought I'd post a few things to clarify:

    1) Does not stack with any other run-speed enchancements. This includes Trinkets/Gems/Other Enchantments or any other Talents that state otherwise.

    It does however, increase your stealthed speed. For a Rogue with 5/5 Camo, the your stealth speed will be reduced to 93% of Normal Movement speed.

    2) The speed increase is 8%

    3) Occassionally makes you strut around and purr

    when you think about it, the AB +speed boots, and a +5 agility enchant are almost equal to this (-1 agility) but MUCH cheaper. sort of makes this one sound not so great.

    saw this for the first time in the AH on zangarmarsh. price? 1999g buyout.
