Raw byte decode of MovementSystem::GetRunRate (0x006b0950, PDB-paired
binary): fild skill; fcom [800f]; fnstsw; test ah, 0x44; jp general —
the C2/C3 parity idiom whose 18/4 fall-through executes ONLY at
skill == 800 exactly. ACE read this as >= 800 ('max run speed?') and
Campaign P P1 inherited that misread when BN dropped the arithmetic,
flat-lining every maxed character at 4.5 (retail-true ~3.70, +21%) and
erasing the vitae differential (both 10200 and 15225 sat above 800).
The [stat-chain] live capture proved the enchant chain correct end to
end (vitae 0.67 -> eff run 10200 -> controller), isolating the formula.
General path byte-verified: (loadMod*(skill/(skill+200)*11)+4)/scaling/4.
InqMaxRunRate's skill=9999 probe gets ~3.6961, not 4.5.
Golden tests pin the 799/800/801 straddle and the maxed-skill vitae
differential; pseudocode doc §6 carries the decode plus a do-not-
reimport-ACE warning. Complete Release suite: 10,025 passed / 5 skips.
