    The point I made is that currently elves do not have any speed advantage in the air when most players use cash shop flying devices. Compare this with humans have a skill to give them a speed advantage on land and the beastkind having a skill to give them faster swimming.

    So, it can very well be said that you can pk and then teleport and run away or swim away, with nobody able to catch you (if you are the right race). The +2m/s is for the lv 1 wings. Why not have, say +0.5 m/s for cash shop wings? That would be about at par with other races' advantages in their regions.

    That is exactly, exactly what I had in mind, thank you so much,:D *handshake*

    *victory*

    Can GM give an opinion?

    Humans are slower on land than WF's for example, and same speed as WB's unless they use the 30sec boost skill. So thats invalid argument.

    Beastkind faster swimming skill is ridiculousley small bonus and almost NEVER used. If you're going to try outswim somone they'd just pop out the water and outfly you.

    CS wings are supposed to be equal, if elves want to have +0.5 or watever then their CS devices should cost more money. Just think a elf would be able to win the horse race every time just by flying then.

    You cannot fly in the horse race.

    fair enough...

    Point being, the other races don't have any significant advantages in speed. Elves are already spoiled brats with their 2m/sec flying where other races get 0.5m/s. Now you want to be even more greedy?

    human have teleport/speedup skill - more speed on the ground.
    Untamed have swimming mastery - more speed under water.
    Elves have a flying mastery that only works with 1 flying item and is slower than cash shop items, no speedup skill nor an underwater skill
    Elves are already spoiled brats with their 2m/sec flying
    only with starter wings. also, they are winged elves. Means they should have an advantage in the air.

    More speed in water is nearly useless IMO ^^; However, Untamed's main speed advantages are ground-based:
    - Venomancer has a 5mins speed-self buff (from 15-35% more walking speed), which you can easily keep always active
    - Barbarian has speed increase when in tiger form

    well then, it's even more unfair :D
    just look at cleric's walking speed - 4.6, while venomancer has 5.6? or soemthing like that, plus the self buff = owned cleric.

    IHMO i never saw any use in flying mastery as it is now - if it's going to affect all wings, then it's worth taking, otherwise useless.

    After lvl 89, WF can walk 6.8, devil WF can run 9.9 constantly.

    I think the EA speed up skill can stack with basic wings.

    Base on the game's idea, human will take the ground, WF/WB will take gound/sea, and Elf should take the air. However, under cash shop item, there are no difference in flying speed. Also, there are no purpose for flying mastery when you have cs wings. (It look so cool, the original wing is ugly). So, what is the point of flying mastery? I suggest GM should apply this skill to cs wing. It doesn't have to be too much. Just an extra +1.00m will be good enough for level 10. At least there is a purpose to learn this after all.

    *Sigh*GM~~~~~~~~~

    CS wings and fly mounts for level 20, lol

    You dont get it... this would imbalance pvp heavily... PKing doesnt take place in the water and if the pking starts on the ground people usually resort to flying to get away.
    I like to rub it in. Enjoying the game?

    I like wingedelf and plan to play as that or an untamed. The speed boost for air though, I have to say is pushing it unless one of the other two races (potentially Untaimed seeming best for) could ground you for a few seconds.

    Have to apply more dynamics to make such advantages not be overpowering. Examples would be from other games generally Hunter is powerful at ranged but absolutely suck at melee range. So to create a fair balance for the huge damage they can deal at range in this other game they applied abilities were mages can Blink and be right next to the hunter making the fight equal, they made were a warrior has this "Charge" ability that allows them do a speed attack that gets them right next to the hunter and pops them back similar damage they did at range. Rouges are capable of going instantly invis in a fight to sneak up behind someone however direct line of sight they are still visible, but even rouges in this other game are able to apply invis on the move and surprise the hunter.

    If the WingElfs were to get faster wings then another class would have to be able to ground them or snare them for a few seconds. It's the only way you'd really make that fair.
