# SPEED (SPD)

### Introduction

In CryptoHunter World, SPEED (SPD) is a critical attribute that determines the turn order in battles. It directly influences which Cryptid will attack first, making it an essential factor in both Player versus Player (PVP) and Player versus Environment (PVE) battles. This system adds a layer of strategy, as securing the first attack can significantly impact the outcome of a battle.

### Role of SPEED in Battles - Turn Order Determination:

The Cryptid with the higher SPEED (SPD) will attack first in a battle. This mechanism ensures that faster Cryptids gain a tactical advantage, enabling them to deal damage or apply status effects before the opponent can react. Importance in PVP:

In PVP combat, SPEED becomes even more important. The ability to attack first often determines the flow of battle, giving players with fast cryptids a competitive advantage. The Potential Value (PV) system for SPEED adds variability to the cryptid statistic, SPEED. Each cryptid has a PV ranging from 0 to 15 assigned to it upon capture, which directly affects its SPD (speed). PV does not change after a cryptid is captured, making it an important factor in determining its overall strength.

### Tiebreaker Rule 

In rare cases where two Cryptids have the exact same SPEED (SPD) value, the turn order is decided randomly. This tiebreaking mechanism ensures fairness and unpredictability when competing Cryptids have identical SPEED stats.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cryptohunter.world/game-module/cryptid-monster/speed-spd.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
