Wings stats

All archers have the ability to fly at level 1 with Natural Elven Wings. These wings drain MP and are the only wings available until level 30. At level 30 you are given a quest to get Eagle Wings which do not take MP. There are also wings available from the cash shop or from other players.

MP Drain
The Natural Elven Wings you start with drain 2 MP/s while flying. These are the only wings that drain MP. You will be slowly losing MP while using them unless you have:
- an MP regeneration buff from a cleric or apothecary item
- equipment that gives you added MP regeneration (commonly a cape)
- 20 base magic (unadvised for an archer)

While flying a meter will appear showing how much longer you can fly before running out of MP.

Flying Speed
Your flying speed is equal to the speed listed on your wings plus the base flying speed. The base flying speed is a constant 5.0 m/s for all classes and is unrelated to the ground speed shown in the character sheet. For example, if you are using wings with a wing speed of +2.0 m/s your flying speed will be 7.0 m/s.

Flying speed is unaffected by the Wings of Protection speed buff or any speed bonuses from equipment. The only factors which affect wing speed are: the Flight Mastery skill, upgrading with wind widgets, and the "Accelerate" action.

Flight Mastery
This is a skill that only affects the wing speed of Natural Elven Wings. At level 1 this will grant an extra +0.2 m/s wing speed and at level 10 will grant +2.0 m/s wing speed. This skill is fairly cheap and some archers choose to level this skill so they can use some fast wings without having to buy cash shop wings.

Upgrading Wings
Only Cash Shop Wings can be upgraded via wind widgets. While some Cash Shop Wings start at a higher speed than others, the speed of all Cash Shop Wings can be increased up to a maximum of +3.0 m/s. The cost of each upgrade in wind widgets depends on the current speed of the wings.

+1.0 m/s to +1.5 m/s: 20 wind widgets
+1.5 m/s to +2.0 m/s: 60 wind widgets
+2.0 m/s to +2.5 m/s: 80 wind widgets
+2.5 m/s to +3.0 m/s: 80 wind widgets (max)

You can upgrade wings at the forge in the south west corner of Thousand Streams. Select the recipe for the speed you wish to upgrade to and drag your wings onto the ingredients icon on the bottom.


Acceleration
'Accelerate' is an action that is available from the action menu by hitting 'E'. This skill can only be used with Cash Shop Wings and Eagle Wings. When accelerated most wings gain 2.0 m/s additional wing speed but lose 1 durability per second. Acceleration is canceled when the action is toggled or durability reaches 0. Durability can be replaced by dragging chi stones onto the wings. Chi stones are gained from decomposing armor and weapons (preferably 2 star).
