    That's a good question...

    But the wings are technically fins.

    They should float around in technicolor bubbles instead.

    Cause the devs were in a rush to finish tideborns so rather than think of something new for them they just decided to slap some wings on them.

    I would like technicolor bubbles QQ.

    I think they couldnt find any reasonable class kind of thing-Untamed got flying beasts so that was out of the picture. Winged elves got, well, wings and Humans got swords, rotating drills and big golden balls.

    Whats left for fishies? Coral wings?

    Flapping fins it was :D

    Unicorns would've been better. Also would've been different from untamed, since they stand on theirs, while TB sit on a unicorn.

    -- You could have a bubble given to you at lvl 1 , but it would burst very easily even if you hit sumonelse's bubble , so you would have to level up your bubbling skill as you level up to 30 to make it a bit stronger, then finally get an unburstable metallic Bubble or if you preffer a Bubble from Cash Shop --
    :o ! A new form of Pk , Bursting sumonelse's bubble.

    Dunno if this was mentioned or not (didn't bother reading the entire topic), if they were going to fuse race specific aero gear it might have made sense for the untamed flying fish (and mounts related to fish perhaps?) to go to the TB instead of wings. Wings on fish simply doesn't make much sense even in a fantasy game.

    Or just nothing at all. They just literally run in the air. Psychics just use their mind to levitate, and sins just run using pure hax. Difference in their various "wings" could be different color footsteps/aura while running/moving in the air. Really how is a sin supposed to be stealthy with gigantic wings? You'd have to be a ****** not to feel the air moving differently and not sense them.

    1. I have never seen a flying fish glide by bending its wings.
    2. Drinking _e_ _u_l gives you wings or so they say.
    3.Why must the tide born give up their wings, i think the winged elves should trade their wings for a magic pogo stick would look much better b:laugh (please note number three is meant as a joke)
