so i understand that all classes receive a flight device at lv30, and elves receive non-mp consuming wings. But, i assumed from there on, every TEN levels will be a rank up in which you receive the next flight device with faster speed. But now i've heard you have to pay real money (zen) to buy wings? T_T

I really wanted the steel wings for the elves :(

    You don't have to buy the Wings, the Wings in the store are faster though, than those in-game, or so I've heard...

    You always had to buy wings O.o if you want something better than the lvl 30 ones, and no, there isn't such thing to get a new set of aerial mount every ten levels.

    You dont have to buy one.... But if you wanna look cool like me:cool: and or if you are rich? buy it.
    i recommend just using the white wings though....they're pretty fast just keep upgrading them,

    Out of sheer curiosity, what gave you the assumption that your wings would upgrade every 10 levels? Since all classes can fly at level 30, I'd understand thinking that they'd get an upgrade every 30 levels... but why 10?

    Anyways, like everyone else said here, the elf wings are the fastest once you spend skill points to upgrade them. The others are stuck using a speedboost (which is slower than the fastest elf base wings), or buying faster ones. Also, the fastest cash shop wings are faster than the fastest elf wings.

    This is one of the better examples of something that gives you an indirect advantage for using the cash shop. The only thing you lose by not buying it is more time after all...

    :confused: what? totally confused.

    Any for assuming new wings every ten levels, I did so because I played a couple other mmos (cabal most notably) that had a rank up every 10 levels (30 levels at high level takes a long time) as a way to encourage players to level. And after every 10 levels, your current equipment is upgraded.


    But this wings process confuses me. Can someone explain how to get better wings in the game? Or rather, how does the wing process work?


    From what i'm hearing, I've this weird concept in my mind that you have can upgrade your current wing...like making it + with special items to make it go faster. And you can also buy a new set of wings that is a higher tier to replace your current wings. T_T :confused:

    One way to upgrade your wings is to purchase cash shop wings. Also, as you level up, your skill trainer will be able to train you in a passive skill that increases the speed at which you fly. ;)

    See, that made everything clearer. So a skill makes wings go faster...but there are faster wings than the basic set, but they are bought in the cash shop.


    Eh...how much are the steel elf wings? T_T

    Um.. Elf race are the only ones that can level the wing speed, but it only works for the basic white set of wings.

    There are two sets of metaloid/steel wings one was req. lvl 60, and the other one, I forgot =X Neither are in the current cash shop in CB, we'll have to wait for OB to see.

    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.
