Wing confusion

I've recently made an archer alt, and I wanted to check something with the rest of you. Flight Mastery only effects 'natural' elven wings, but what exactly are 'natural' elven wings. I'm imagining Boutique wings are out, but are the lvl 30 wings (eagle wings?) included? Basically, if I never intend to buy Boutique wings, is it a good idea to invest in Flight Mastery, or will I loose all my benefits at lvl 30?

Also, is there any way there any way to make the Eagle Wings look like the starter wings (white) or is there any point at which the mana drain for starter wings becomes insignificant for archers, similar to how it does for clerics? Basically, is there any practical way I can keep white wings without constantly spending massive amounts of mana?

    No, natural elven wings are the white wings you get at lvl one. Starter wings will probably never be free because mp regen is based on (I believe) magic only, and no archer should have more tahn 5 magic, unless it's a blue on an item. It is strange though, that clerics start out with the same stats (5 on each), yet use no mp while flying with white wings at lvl 1, but that is probably natural regen.

    I believe thats cause the clerics starts off with a +2 mp regen bonus.
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    Lol, yeah, Flight Mastery is only for Clerics. Those white wings aren't usable for archers anyway.

    what wait no where did this come from? throw on a mp recover cape or something and you're good to go as an archer, not everyone can afford cash shop wings for a while

    Those tends to be rare at early lvls, and may not come in enough amount in one cape. Besides, if you need to kill air mobs for quest, it'll become more of a burden. Not to mention you'll eventually want non-mana consuming wings later on anyway, so the spirit/coin cost of the skill is wasted. Clerics do fine with +2 white wings the entire game. Archers might as well make do with the free brown wings until cash shop wings, instead of getting a temporary skill.
