It's come up in the artifacts thread that no artifact boots are any good because they don't compete with seven league boots. And the solution there? Introduce way overpowered artifacts... Well that ain't right!

Seven league boots are too good in the game. They provide an immense tactical advantage, making *everyone* opt for them over any other type of footwear. Their bonus should be reduced to 700 or 800 movement cost to make them less of a no-brainer item to use.
