Good news for all Mag'har, it not only stacks with Mount Up (Guild perk) for 220% total epic mount speed, but it also stacks with BFA Pathfinder for 230% mount speed. Neither Mount Up nor Pathfinder work in battlegrounds but Open Skies do, so a total of 210% mount speed in BGs and Arenas.

Highmountain: *Build a skyscraper, high in the mountain. Also ride (and turn into) eagles.*
Blizzard: Let's give Open Skies to the Mag'har.
I was a little unsure how this racial stacked with current BFA ground mount speed, so I went to do some testing:
Open Skies + [spell=78633] = 220% speed (Open Skies stacks with Mount Up.)
Open Skies + [spell=78633] + [spell=281240] = 230% speed (Swift Landing does not stack with Mount Up.)
Open Skies + [spell=78633] + Battle for Azeroth Pathfinder = 230% speed (BFA Pathfinder does not stack with Mount Up.)
Open Skies + [spell=78633] + [spell=281240] + Battle for Azeroth Pathfinder = 250% speed (Swift Landing and Pathfinder stack, but one or the other will override Mount Up.)

Increases mounted speed by 10%.

Anyone know if this will stack with On a Pale Horse when Mag'har Orcs gain the ability to be Death Knights?
Can confirm stacks with guild perk for 220% of normal ground speed on standard epic ground mount.
Hopefully this stacks with the guild perk and works in battlegrounds. Otherwise this is only useful for guidless people who don't pvp much at all.
Edit: Have confirmation that it seems to stack with any of the mount speed increases I have thus far found, however it does NOT affect aquatic mounts at all, from my testing so far.
Ghost Wolf form is not mount, speed stays same and I tested too, can confirm it
I can confirm first hand that this racial DOES stack with the death knight passive, leading to moving at 230% of normal speed.
Flying speed for Mag'har Orc are as follows:
You get up to 430% speed with Master Riding + [spell=78633]
You get up to 440% speed with Master Riding + Battle for Azeroth Pathfinder, which doesn't stack with [spell=78633].
You get up to 460% speed with Master Riding + Battle for Azeroth Pathfinder + [spell=281240] (proof). For some reason, [spell=281240] stacks with the other bonuses for Mag'har Orcs, leading to the 460%, which is weird, since on all my other characters, I do not get more than 420%, since, in theory, [spell=281240] does not apply to flying mounts. It might be a tooltip error, I do not know. I tried flying in a straight line with the buff and then right clicking it. I did not feel any slower, but it's really hard to notice at such speed without some kind of measure. I tested this with an addon called MonkeySpeed and it showed that I had 460% movement speed;I'm also not totally sure how to math works for the racial. Without [spell=281240], it would be 430% top flying speed in BfA if the 10% was additive, and yet I have 440% (I'm not complaining). Somewhere along the math, it must be multiplicative instead of additive. Either that, or Mag'har Orc can stack with the guild perk for some reason. I don't want to quit my guild to test that, but if someone out there can test this, I'll be thankful :)
Does the speed bonus apply to the Shaman Ghost Wolf form as well?
Does this effect Dragon riding?
Can also confirm it stacks with BFA pathfinder achievement. Epic ground mount speed is 230% with pathfinder (guild perk + pathfinder has a max of 220%). In flying zone it was showing 430% mount speed.
CONFIRMED: it does stack. I race-changed my DK from Mag'har to Goblin, and my mounted speed dropped by 10. Used the MonkeySpeed add-on to check myself. https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/monkey-speed
I don't think it does. Both my Druid, my Warrior and my Mag'har Orc all have max 789% speed (when not using abilities) whilst dragonriding. I do however get 10% whilst running along the ground so no, I do not think it works with Dragonriding at all.
210% in instanced PvP?
Are you certain of this?
Just what I wanted to know. Thanks!
It does stack with crusaders aura in bg's, so my mag'har ork is faster than the paladin with the aura ^^
well that's just ill informed.
That part is really too bad. Ghost Wolf rocks, but would be extra awesome with Mag'har racials buffing it.
thats a big shame ... considering druids have *!@#ing F1 speed in travel form and shamans barely get 50% and that is only if you have speced it this way in talents...
Yes, it does. A previous poster used the MonkeySpeed addon to prove it worked a different way, and yes it works with Dragonriding. https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/monkey-speed
lmao, Ill try and Bump
210% 220% 230% it doesn't make any difference on short distances
