 Yup!

Does this spell stack with itself?

No spells stack with themselves

Thanks! I thought that was the case :)

Is this spell still good or is jump better?

This spell hasn't changed in 2024, so it's still as good as it was before.

Jump did get a significant improvement that makes it generally more useful than it was. This spell still has the advantages of working on kinds of movement other than jumping, and lasting a lot longer.

this spell is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! :D

How would this work with Boots of Speed?  Add ten and then double total, or double base and add 10?

Since both are active effects that you have to use some kind of action to turn on, it will depend on what order you activate them in.

So, assuming a base Speed of 30 feet, if you cast this spell first, your Speed increases to 40 feet. Then you activate your Boots of Speed, which doubles your Speed to 80 feet.

If you activate the boots first, they double your base Speed to 60 feet. Then casting the spell would add 10 feet to increase your Speed to 70 feet.

Which makes it awesome for my Wood Elf Monk with a base speed of 50.  Longstrider followed by Boots of Speed for a speed of 120.  Which is about 13.5 MPH.  And I can Move, Action-Dash, Bonus Action-Step of the Wind to move 260 feet in one combat turn.  Or move 50 feet up to an opponent, hit them, Bonus Action Disengage and move 50+ feet away so they can't even attempt to hit me.

It's even better than that; dashing twice like that would give you a total of 360 feet of movement that turn, not 260.

Typo.  I meant 360.  Thanks for the catch.

Yay

How do we feel this works with a Circle of Stars Druid in Dragon Form? In Dragon Form, the Druid gets 20ft Fly Speed. If I cast Longstrider on myself, does this increase to 30ft?

If I cast Longstrider before using Dragon form, does it still increase Fly Speed to 30ft?

Thoughts?

First time here

This is one of those cases where, by a strict reading of the rules, the order in which you do stuff does matter.

Because the Fly Speed you get from that Druid feature is just a flat number, not based on your current Speed, increasing your Speed beforehand (with this spell or anything else) doesn't impact it and it's still just 20 feet.

However, the rules on Speed in the Rules Glossary say that if you have a special speed like a Fly Speed, any increase to your base Speed increases your special speed(s) too, so casting this spell (or otherwise increasing your base Speed) after activating the Dragon thing would cause this spell to affect the special Fly Speed.

In practice, a lot of DMs probably wouldn't worry about it and would let you do it in the other order too.
