Mobility
In Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, Mobility is a weapon stat that increases your sprint speed, dodge distance, and the number of effective dodges you have while wielding that weapon. While mobility is valuable for survival by helping you create distance from enemies, it is often considered a less impactful stat than damage or finesse, especially on ranged weapons, with the maximum benefits for dodging often reached at 60% Mobility.
What Mobility Affects
Movement Speed: How quickly your character sprints.
Dodge Distance: How far you move when you dodge an attack.
Dodge Count: The maximum number of effective dodges you can perform before they become less effective.
Key Aspects
Weapon-Specific:
Mobility is tied to the weapon you have equipped. A lighter, more agile weapon like a knife will have higher mobility than a heavy combat axe, for example.
Thresholds:
You often gain the maximum amount of dodges by hitting 50% or 60% Mobility, with little to no perceptible benefit beyond that point.
Survival Tool:
Good mobility allows you to outmaneuver enemies, create distance from dangerous threats, and escape overwhelming situations.
"Dump Stat":
For many builds, particularly ranged ones, Mobility is seen as a "dump stat" because the benefits are minimal after a certain point, and other stats like Damage, Finesse (weak point damage), or Cleave (hitting multiple enemies) are often more crucial for clearing objectives.
