I have a issue with flying pals

[ChaosSwarm]

When riding them in the air and their "stamina" feels really low even at lvl 40+
they feel like a waste when using them for travel

I guess if you cheese flying and combat together, but you can switch stamina rates out of combat and in it instead of making everybody slow as hell

omg way over your head.

Keeping you in air for a long time takes away from the game which is on the ground. Hence why the default speed and stamina is low

then why did they add the saddles for flyers if the intend for you to be on the ground all the time?

then why even have saddles for flyers in the game then if they intend for you to be on the ground 24/7?

What he means is you spend a lot of time exploring on the ground because there is a lot to discover. When you fly you miss a lot, which is why when you unlock flying it's fairly slow so you miss less. Once you unlock the better flyers you're already fairly familiar with the world so you know where you want to go. This is called game design.

Last thing I say in this thick headed thread

It's for progression

ok then but why make a endgame flyer worse than a starting early land mounts?

i believe condensing pals upgrades the riding skill. also i think the stamina on the mount uses your stamina stat.

They aren't. Flying is dependent on stats, when you capture a pal they have different stats. Some are better than others and some augment the player. You may have one with the "swift" trait which would make it faster and could be preferred as a tier 3 trait. Level them up, boost the stat at the statue, raise their rank, and breed to get better. Jet is the best though. High stamina, high speed, lots of fun to fly.

have you considered sacrificing pals in order to give their essense to enhance the riding skill of the pal you are trying to use?
