When using the scrolls in the academy to improve travel speed, it turns out that its not helping the player at all. Obviously you are arriving  at the target sooner, BUT it drops your defensive power down, considerably. This can clearly be seen, in the above two pics

WHY IS THIS?

Hi! Please note that the def stats might be related to the different bonuses, basically, they can be improved by studying the relevant scrolls. As for the speed, unfortunately, I could not reproduce it on my side, in case you still experience this issue, please create a ticket request and one of our agents will check this matter for you.
