1. What is DnD Speed to MPH Conversion?

This calculator converts Dungeons & Dragons movement speed (measured in feet per round) to real-world miles per hour (mph). This helps players visualize how fast their characters are moving in familiar units.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following conversion formula:

Where:

• 10 — Number of rounds per minute (6 seconds per round)
• 3600 — Seconds per hour
• 5280 — Feet per mile
• 6 — Seconds per round

Explanation: The formula converts feet per round to feet per hour, then to miles per hour.

3. Understanding the Calculation

Details: In D&D, a round is 6 seconds. A character's speed represents how far they can move in that time. This conversion helps compare fantasy movement speeds to real-world measurements.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Simply enter your character's movement speed in feet per round (typically 25-50 for most races). The calculator will instantly show the equivalent speed in miles per hour.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why convert DnD speed to mph?
A: It helps players better visualize and understand their character's movement speed in familiar units.

Q2: What's a typical DnD character's speed in mph?
A: A human with 30 ft/round speed moves about 3.4 mph (walking speed). A Tabaxi with 50 ft/round moves about 5.7 mph.

Q3: Does this account for dash actions?
A: No, this calculates base speed. For dash (double movement), multiply the result by 2.

Q4: How does this compare to real human speeds?
A: Average human walking speed is 3-4 mph, running 8-15 mph, sprinting up to 28 mph (for world-class athletes).

Q5: What about flying speeds?
A: The same calculation applies - just enter the flying speed in ft/round instead of walking speed.
