Personal Preference: Skyriding or Regular flying?

Really? The pipe fixing with skyriding is so easy for me. I finish it less than 30 seconds. Vigor is never a problem and it is fun weaving in and out of the pipes.

normal flying especially since they increased the speedā€¦

I look at the mapp all the time while skyriding. You coast the same as old style, but donā€™t need to set the auto-run. Granted i may tip upward a bit to slow down if i expect to take a long look at the map.

I am talking about a big opaque map that I need to be able to read while flying.

I canā€™t do both on my laptop screen.

I generally run into things. Twigs, walls, bits of invisible stringā€¦

Slow flying gives lots more control and less stress.

If I have to cross a continent or travel a long distanceā€¦skyriding. But for the most part regular as landing close to things gets tricky for me at high speeds.

Fly higher then. I have my map open all the time while skyriding.

That is where halt comes into play. Fly near the area, halt and float down.

Skyriding in general, but if Iā€™m staying in a relatively small area for a prolonged period Iā€™ll switch to steady flight because vigor canā€™t really keep up with constantly landing and taking off.

Shift M, Opens a mini map you can change its opaqueness, and size. I keep mine up most the timeā€¦ I still run into treesā€¦

Skyriding almost 100% of the time

Medium to Long distance - Skyriding

Short distance, collecting nodes or treasure boxes - Static flying

It took me a while to get used to ā€œDragon Ridingā€ too, I still have mixed feelings about in essence having to play the ā€œvigor mini gameā€ to travel, because sometimes tbh I just donā€™t feel like Skyriding because of how much attention I have to pay and control. For dragon riding outside of the races they should remove the vigor bubbles imo

When Iā€™m camping, I use regular flying.

When Iā€™m farming, I use skyriding.

PS I love using my :owl:

I have the normal map scaled down. But I fly over the trees.

Itā€™s a mix! I skyride to get places quickly. I use steady flight for farming herbs, fishing and other leisure activities. And also steady flight for dawn breaker.

Honestly, I just stopped paying attention to vigor. I always have thrill of the skys buff up to recharge vigor while flying.

It just makes skyriding feel more like skyriding than just a helicopter.

And hit the cliffs, ceilings, walls, buildings or run out of vigor.

I have done it, but if I donā€™t have to, I donā€™t.

I even walk in the cities and towns.
