Wings were a special thing to elves. Why give tideborns wings too? Then why not make another class and give them flying swords lile humans?

<---stupid dp shows my level wrong

    I agree.

    Tideborn should have had flying sealife... fish for the free quest ones, then for the more expensive ones fancier things like sharks and sea turtles. That would have been amusing.

    And the avatar shows my level wrong too. They don't follow as you level up anymore apparently.

    The default lvl 30 wings look kinda...Pathetic and flimsy. I agree with wings not being the best choice.

    Lack of imagination I suppose. The tideborn wings really don't suit them at all. They look like fairy wings. If they had to use wings then ones like bats have would have been better b:chuckle

    Well, untamed got the mantas, but their other ones are not water creatures. So it still could have been done, just avoiding mantas.

    if they were going to have wings then they should have been more fish like. or they could use water as their flaying mount, the water surrounds them and they change into tide form and swim in a bubble of water in the air. altho in some ways that may be a tad strange:/

    I think i detect a little sarcasm here...you think? lol Anyway, I assumed the large back fins of the true form would just grow for "wings" and they could acheive lift off like the flying fish one sees on the way to Catalina Is. in California. Which is basically a jump and glide. So a magic enhanced flying fish is not so far fetched. Considering all the other "fetched" things going on in PWI. (Insert wink here.) Off topic: my favorite mob: Tuskmoor Dolts.

    Ok, Imma say it straight <_< TB wingz are **** they look **** they're ugly and the wingz are freakz all on their own. Plz take no offence devz. Why would fish need wingz? I say they could have been much more creative and with all of the respect I have for all PWI staff, I'm very dissappointed with the whole expansion. Az of now... </3

    I always thought that "specialized fins" that morph into wings would have been the better choice by designers, but oh well, it is what it is.

    I just bought my wings for a hefty fee from the cash shop, so if they do change the wings for TB's, I hope they do a retro fit for me, because the thought of having to spend another chunk of cash for updated wings sounds pretty grim. b:shocked

    P.S. The photo-bucket link gave me a good laugh, thanks.

    Peace...

    If you have textures set to minimum, they'll look glitchy.

    Wings for one reason ( i guess )

    Cant Assassins became invisible while flying? if they can (didnt test it yet) how he could became invisible with a Pet or an object flying on it?

    Then you all will say: 'Why his beast became invisible too? Is it a glitch?'
    'Why his Surf Board becames invisible too? he have special abilities?'

    i didnt test that yet, but is this what i imagine xD

    Should of made the TB flight capabilities like the 'ol "Aquaman" flying mounts.

    You bouys and gulls, (nyk...nyk...), that are old enough to remember those old cartoons, Aquaman use to have two big seahorses bridaled together, and he would have one under each foot. That'd be fitting for the TB class!

    Peace...
