As I already mentioned, you can't use two stealth IO's on a character.  I just double checked again on test server to make absolutely sure and no, it would not let me slot both a celerity stealth and an unbounded leap stealth on the same character.  Super speed's stealth is very useful and not undermined by IO's.

Ohh how did I miss you saying that. That changes things, and is good for SS. I just checked and I was running winters gift and not a different stealth IO on my character, Arctic Fog was on...it was a whole thing. Sorry about that. Regardless, in terms of raw travel ability Speed O Sound and Mighty Leap are undeservingly superior to their primary analogues, which is the point I was getting at.

IMO Super Speed is currently the "best" of the high run speed options because of its Stealth capability and because it is in the Speed pool. 

 

Flight, in the Fly pool on the other hand is a truly bad travel power.

The stealth is definitely great, but Jaunts added speed is particularly oppressive by comparison in other instances, so I guess it just depends on what you're doing and with what powerset. For instance, many characters are already completely invisible with just an added stealth IO. It certainly isn't better than SOS for PvP or herding. I myself usually pick the travels to, well, travel. My concern is really just that the designated speed pool is in fact slower than another, and has no means on it's own to change that.

Agreed, though at least it can get afterburner and jump packed.

Not only that, afterburner is counted as defence ability, granting it the use of lotg enhancement, 2 lotg in 1 pool is a good trade off for slower travel speed.
