Anyone have any idea why speed isn’t being improved upon dodge?

I think you need at least one of “uarmed\_allowed” or “armed\_allowed” set to true, so it should be:

```auto
    "ondodge_buffs" : [
        {
            "id" : "acrobat_speedboost_three",
            "name" : "Hurr durr",
            "description" : "You do a flip",
            "unarmed_allowed": true,
            "flat_bonuses" : [
                ["speed", 100.0]

            ]
        }
    ]
```
