I am a halfling monk who has recently acquired boots of striding and springing. As a halfling I have a base movement of 25ft, however being a monk (currently level 4) I have an extra 10ft of movement plus an extra 10ft from the mobile feat for a total, pre boots, of 45ft.



The boots of striding and springing raise your walking speed to 30ft if it is less than 30ft.



Does this raise to 30ft take effect before or after the other modifications? I.e., would my speed be 50ft or still my current 45ft?

          The boots are applied to your speed, after other (permanent) additions



          The boots give you speed, not movement. Speed is effectively the amount of movement you get per turn. Therefore the boots give you no benefit unless your speed is reduced by something else.



          Because the movement speed from monk and from a feat are permanent and not optional or conditional in any way, your walking speed is 45 when you put on the boots so they do not boost it.

                    One-line joke

                    A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala
