Question

What is the maximum steps per second a character can take while maintaining the fastest pace (god speed) in the game?

I'm not sure this question can be answered definitively with the current information available. However, you might want to check out this discussion: https://www.tibiaqa.com/35486/level-required-profession-reach-cobbled-pavement-stone-marble-floors?show=35486#q35486.

As far as I know, there isn’t a clearly defined maximum speed in Tibia that we're aware of. That said, I do believe a cap exists—we just haven’t discovered or confirmed what it is yet.

It should be 20 steps per second on GM speed.

Tibia has a server tick (sometimes called server beat) of 50 milliseconds. Your character's speed and the friction of the floor you are walking on determine how many ticks it takes to walk one step. GM speed is the fastest possible, which means you take one step every server tick (50 milliseconds). This results in 20 steps per second.

For reference, the speed breakpoint before GM speed is one step every two server ticks (100 milliseconds, or 10 steps per second).

Be aware that because of step lag, you are unlikely to actually walk 20 steps per second unless you have very low ping (ideally less than 50 ms).
