Do you guys play without a gliding pal ?

[Mini Mushrum]

I feel like the galeclaw is 100% needed, especially for exploring dungeons

Toughts about it ?

Have never used a glider pal in 350 hours. I literally don't know what I'm missing.

i use a glider item .. only need it when i need to break a fall down .. for exploring dungeon i use a normal paladius (alpha is too big)

Wow ! How do you clear the dungeons, then ? It takes so long to walk inside them, and most fliers can't fit trough the rooms doors

My team is made of

A fighter
A flier
A glider
A mining pal
A player buffer

I'd like to use a flier, a fighter then 3 buffers, but I can't possibly play without a glider :/

Hmm i'm not there yet, but I can't mount my fighter pal ( Lyleen Noct )

grapple gun and manufactured glider are more than enough (to abuse momentum transfer) until you get a small flying/ground mount that moves quickly. I use Frostallion, but Shadowbeak is a good alternative. Rayhound is also a good mount to get through dungeons with as it can hop up steep inclines.

Mount pal. I tend to use an Eikthyrdeer, then a perfected Direhowl. Then I might upgrade to something like a Fenglope, Shadowbeak, and finally Necromus. There's probably a bunch of other good options along the way.

I can get by with one of the improved gliders and the slingshot effect of the grappling hook.

But a Pal glider is kinda nice, although the hangyu is a bit of a hit'n miss. It pulls you up a bit, which is nice for climbing, but terrible for landing. It's also the slowest glider, even slower than the equipment.

[Mini Mushrum]

Hmm.. I guess it's a good idea to get a 2nd fighter pal that is small enough, fast, and can be mounted.

I might look into Azurmane, if it's not too big ? ( not seen, not captured yet )

As a hangyu glider cultist, I think glider pals are 100% needed everywhere. It nulls fall damage, its faster than a passiveless jetdragon, and until they patch it and break my soul it can glitch-jump to any elevation.

That said, in terms of dungeons I'd prefer a mount to run through it if I'm on the inside, grapple hovering around corners and falling at the right times is fun but is hyper-intensive on hangyu. Instead of all that I always break OOB and zoom to the boss.

I do see how great galeclaw would be in the dungeon though, its much easier to control at the expense of air gained.

Press the de/summon pal button instead of space/ctrl. It will animation cancel and you can spam it to fall at your own safe pace.

Recently tried it with a Killamari and got pretty good with the grappling hook. Definitely replaces most flying mounts for me, still prefer Jetragon for absolute control but until then it's fast and fun. As for dungeons it always feels like a slog no matter what, maybe Galeclaw fixes that but I absolutely despise it along with Reindrix.

[Dragorin]

I use a Fanglope in dungeons to get around fast.

[Kaelmato]

Personally I still T-pose glide everywhere.

[Magpie]

Galeclaw is great, especially with movespeed and stamina perks to improve the glide. Wayyy better than most of the equipment glider items. I can't comment on the best gliders because I've never felt a need to replace a decent galeclaw, ever.

The best glider was ourselves all along
