How do you calculate speed in D&D? ›
This gives us a simple ratio for converting feet per round (the standard 5e unit of speed) to miles per hour: 10 feet per round equals 1 mph. Based on this formula, your character with a speed of 85 would have a travel pace of 8.5 miles per hour, which is not too far off from the exact figure of 9.7.

How fast is Dracthyr flying? ›
Soar is a racial ability for Dracthyr. Similar to the flying mini-game, Dragonriding, Soar allowed Dracthyr to move through the air at speeds of up to around 930%.
Only the dracthyr would be flying. This is literally no different than Blizzard giving worgen the ability to "run" as fast as a normal ground mount. So, again: what is the issue, here? Again, Dynamic Flight/Dragon Flying is a far more powerful travel ability than Running Wild.
