    Erm well clerics wont have problems with the timing cause their mana regen really quickly is only the archers. At lvl 30, you will get new wings and these wings have no time limit.

    Before level 30, the Natural Elf Wings (the white ones you start with) use Mana (blue bar) to keep you in flight.

    For Clerics, this isn't a problem because they regenerate mana fast enough that it doesn't drop their bar. So unless they are fighting in the air, they can fly forever, basically.

    For Archers, the MP is gradually consumed until it runs out, then you fall. You can land and meditate to recover the MP, or use an MP potion. (Expensive option!) if all you want to do is fly for ages :)

    When you reach level 30, you will get a Flight Quest, where you get the Eagle Wings. Those do not use Mana to fly, so you can just keep going and going.

    yep yep
    to sum up everything that's been said;

    1.clerics can fly forever whereas archers loose more mp (lower mp regen rate) and therefore fall from the skies (learnt that the hard way myself xP)
    2.u get the eagle wings at lvl 30 at ur wing quest HOWEVER!
    3.u can always buy wings from the boutique and if my fishy memory does not fail me then the bloodmist wings (bat wings) are available for lvl 20s (but then again I am not good at remembering stuff ^^;)
    4.about ur wings;

    there's a skill (flight mastery oe w/e) that enhances ur elven wing's AND ONLY speed. BY 50s u have a 2.0 speed with ur wings (think it's 54) now now if u don't wanna spent ur sp or money on that skill u can w8 for ur lvl 30 wings or buy sthg from the boutique...

    my personal advice to all archers: don't get that skill EVER cause the lvl 30 wings will not drain ur mp!! elven wings are a killer (for me at least) when battling in mid air or trying to flee a battle and suddenly fall from the skies right into the aggro's range (and die most commonly) so there's no real need to get that skill. If u do wanna get it though, it's ur decision to make...on my cleric I have it maxed...

    so hope that helped <3

    have fun

    eagle wings are **** and people that use them are idiots

    bat wings are avaliable for level 30s not 20s

    I would rather use maxed natural elven wings rather than Eagle wings, as would any intelligent person.
    And really when my archer was a low level I got MP pots which where like.. 5 coins each or sumthing

    Disregard the thing i said about flight mastery. i logged back in at it turns out i still lose mana something must of just glitched last time. So now im back to falling into monster infested lakes.

    Incorrect. Archers and Clerics use the same wings. Clerics can stay airbourne because of their mp regeneration.
    Try i.e. making a Light Armour Cleric, fly and enter attack mode. You'll see your mp getting drained.

    False. You can see the MP being used on a Level 1 cleric if you try it out right as soon as you get the character; it regenerates fairly quickly though so it only blinks a little. As soon as you start leveling the cleric, the MP regen rate increases even further, so you'll almost never notice it.

    The only time you will notice it is if you've been fighting midair as a cleric, and use up almost all of your MP. When it hovers at near Empty it starts flickering and you can see the MP recovery struggling to increase the bar, but it fills very, very slowly. Take the wings off and land, and the MP bar shoots back up a lot faster.

    Besides... right on the Natural wings it says how much MP they consume. 2 per second, I believe.
