Quick Answer
All 13 collectible broom models have the same flight performance at the same upgrade level. A Silver Arrow, Ember Dash, Sky Scythe or Night Dancer does not give you higher top speed by itself. Choose by visual design, then buy the three Weekes upgrades.

Step-by-Step Solution
- Open Collections → Brooms and compare unlocked broom appearances.
- Choose a broom on looks, sound and night-time styling—those are cosmetic preferences, not measured speed advantages.
- Purchase broom enhancements from Albie Weekes after completing Imelda’s associated trials.
- Retest two brooms at the same upgrade level and height, following the same route.
- If you want to complete all 13, gather merchant and balloon-challenge brooms separately.
How This Mechanic Works
Base speed, acceleration and boost are not tied to the broom purchase price. Cosmetic effects can make a broom appear faster, but the underlying performance is the same once upgrade status is equal.
Tips That Save Time
- Silver Arrow costs more because of rarity and merchant availability, not because it is faster.
- The House model reflects your identity; it is not a secret speed boost.
- Different night-time lighting or sound impressions can affect preferences but do not provide verified performance scores.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which broom is the fastest?
At the same upgrade tier, none. They fly at the same speed.
Are all 13 brooms required for upgrade quests?
No, any broom works for the trials.
Does the 5,000-Galleon model outperform a 600-Galleon broom?
No. The price difference does not buy better base flight statistics.
