What do elves have?

The thing is all races have given special abilities to help them go faster

Untamed: transformation
Humans: that blue light thing
Elves: flying from level 1

this is kinda unfair since everyone else can fly too so it doesn't make it a unique elf thing , flying since level 1 is also not really needed because quests are very near at early levels don't you think elves should be given a new ability or something that are unique to elves that makes them so faster?

    Elves get Flight Mastery which speeds up their regular white wings. That's enough for me, really! b:cute

    edit: I mean to say, that I think that's their 'unique ability' type thing. I made it sound like you had no idea about flight mastery and that's not what I meant, lol.

    Blue light thing? How come I don't have that?
    Bladestorm lets you spin around like a carnival ride and do damage. Not using it is almost like having a move called Confetti Rocket Power Leap and saving it for "emergencies"

    Um... "That blue thing" is reserved for blademasters, wizards don't get speed buffs, unless you consider Shrink a speed buff. Oo.
    And archers do get speed buffs. Their evasion buff and one of their level 79 skill.

    Both Human speed skills require chi, if I'm not mistaken. Plus we have that nice CD on those skills.

    BM's have 2 speed skills b:victory

    One makes us run at 190% speed for 15 seconds (requires no chi)
    Other makes us run at 200% speed for 15 seconds (costs 1 spark)

    We also have tiger leaps which are sort of like sucky versions of distance shrink =D (also cost chi)

    Barb run faster when they transform as part of their skill, venomancers do not.
    Venomancers gain speed by a self buff, summer sprint. (Learnt at 29, 59, 89 and 92.)Barbarians can learn swimming mastery for speed underwater, venomancers cannot.

    Blademasters learn two speed skills, wizards learn none.

    Clerics and archers learn flying mastery skills.

    I think wizards lose out here, not elves.

    Flight Mastery isn't really big deal since max CS aerogear can go
    +3.0m/s. 1m faster than an elf with maxed flight mastery.


    Archers get 5.2m/s base speed, the highest of all classes, 6.0 with wings of protection.
    The only way to win is to quit. b:bye

    The only thing I wouldn't mind seeing is faster walking speed for clerics.

    Swimming mastery is a lie, I learnt it on my veno back when I was nub, back then it worked. Now the skill description reads N/A (No effect) on venomancers but barbs still get the full skill description :/

    And there's always different ways to imporve your speed. You can always find gear with +m/s. My base speed on my venomancer is now 7.0 m/s without the level 92 summer sprint o.o
    There's also genie speed skills such as holy path too.


    And flight mastery means alot to those of whom aren't rich enough yet to afford CS. My cleric is quite very poor, flight mastery helps alot.

    Clerics do get speed a speed buff actually their 79 skill increases movement speed immensely as well as reducing damage. And if you read the back-story there is a reason why each class has the speed buffs they do. b:laugh All else fails go get holy path that will fix you right up.

    Don't remember where I saw it but Venomancers and Barbarians both descend from animals and their legs are hyper developed or something like that.

    Blademasters are something like super fit so constantly running like that doesn't even phase them eh I don't even remember were I read it I think it was in game or something or on this site but I don't know where. I don't remember the other three wizards developed theirs I think. But I really don't remember the winged elves.

    airspeed is completely independant from groundspeed lol.

    Class - Base Ground Speed
    Blademaster - 5.0m/s
    Wizard - 4.8m/s
    Barbarian - 4.9m/s
    Venomancer - 5.1m/s
    Archer - 5.2m/s
    Cleric - 4.8m/s

    Class - Base Air Speed
    Blademaster - 5.0m/s
    Wizard - 5.0m/s
    Barbarian - 5.0m/s
    Venomancer - 5.0m/s
    Archer - 5.0m/s
    Cleric - 5.0m/s

    aerogear modifier directly adds onto the base airspeed of 5.0m/s
