Sprint not affected by Jump Enhancements?

Recommended Posts

I understand that speed and jump height/speed have caps in this game but while I was experimenting with adding 3 jump enhancements in Hurdle, I was surprised to discover that Sprint also takes jump enhancement.  Now, I haven't tried this without Hurdle maxed out, but it seems like the jump enhancement I took hasn't actually affected my jump height/speed.

There are some possibilities.

1. The jump enhancement, while accepted, isn't modifying Sprint.  It is bugged.
2. I've already reached the jump height/speed cap.
3. Jump height is not enhanced, only jump speed and I am just not seeing it right.
4. The enhancement is marginal enough to miss by the naked eye.

I'm eyeballing it and not sure if I'm reading the stats correctly.  It should've modified my jump height (and/or speed) by 30% from the single IO I used... yet if I turn on Sprint, I see no noticeable difference.

Any help?

So, I did a little testing.   

Figure A - Level 1 Regular Jump, no upgrades
Figure B - Level 1 Sprint Jump, no upgrades
Figure C - Level 1 Sprint Jump, 1 enhancement.

Figure D - Level 50, trained to level 3; Regular Jump, no upgrades
Figure E - Level 50, trained to level 3; Spirit Jump, no upgrades
Figure F - Level 50, trained to level 3; Spirit Jump, 3 enhancements

I'm going to try upgrading Hurdle and see what happens.

Okay... that seems to tell me something.

Figure G - Level 50, trained to level 5; Regular Jump, no upgrades
Figure H - Level 50, trained to level 5; Sprint Jump, 3 enhancements
Figure I - Level 50, trained to level 5, Sprint Jump with 3 enhancements, and Hurdle with 3 enhancements.

So this rules out... the jump height cap, and the marginal possibilities... 

But, looking again at it again, it appears that the enhancement is only affecting Jump speed, and I wasn't really measuring that before but I think it's safe to rule out bug.

So, the answer to my question was...

Which is only partially correct.  Jump Enhancement does increase Jump height, just not on the Sprint power.  Which is a shame...

I was hoping to get my jump a bit higher while using SS.  I know it's common to pair it with SJ, but I just wanted to test the limits.

Also, sorry if this isn't the right place to post this.  I didn't think it was really a bug and just wanted to see if anyone else knew before I set some time aside and test it.

Still, good to know!
