Flying with pet

[Icarus01]

after talking to a few beta testers i have found that your pet will walk along the ground under you and if you fly to far from it it will unsummon and disapear.

i wonder if they will change it and it also kinda ruins the pet damage if people can just fly away from it

i wonder what will happen in the abbys

=( I dont know... The only thing I can think of is nuking from the ground.

I hope it'll get fixed or something... I don't know how to not be in disadvantage in the abyss, where everyone is flying... Maybe SM get some special skills on air... but I doubt that could change anything.

Well.. wait and see.

The spiritmaster's nuking skills will probably increase when you are in the air.Plus you can fly only 1 minute

but still alot of the spells we will do make the bet do some nuke damage to it will be upsetting not to see it flying when we loose such a large chunk of combat

That would probably be the best option. There are a lot of possibilities for this and the guys at NCsoft just have to push for their imagination.

Possible solutions:

- while in air, enhance spiritmaster's debuff spells. So, in air it would mainly be a debuffer.
- create an aerial summon to fly along with the summoner
- create a summon with a huge fire range so that he could shoot people in the sky from the ground
- make a new skill where the summoner could get something like the golem but instead, an Eagle for example, to attack the enemies temporarily in aerial combat

Any other ideas?

They could be lazier and just allow our pets to fly too. There isn't a good reason for them not to fly with us.

this topic has been the only thing keeping me at 99% on my spiritmaster decision. i'm waiting to see what the dev's response is to this because it's a really really big deal. a flying pet would be pretty amazing, but since most of our pets are hovering off the ground anyway, there really isin't a legitimate reason for them not to fly with us. btw azorak, you have unlimited flying time in the abyss.

im going to be so annoyed if they don't fly it means any noob can just hit his wings and we just lost a major chunk of dps

does any 1 know if the roots spell works in flight because its going to be so annoying if we loose that as well as pets.

It would only make sense that we get all of our elemental abilities off the ground. If we can PVe and PVp on ground with all the elementals, we should be able to do the same in the air. I assume each elemental has a purpose (tank, healer, dd, etc), so limiting it to one new flying elemental would mean we would be forced to fight with only that new flying elemental and not be able to switch up elementals based on the situation of the battle (unless that flying elemental is a combination of all the elements, like Captain Planet). =P

Maby they should make a recall spell to make your pet POP right next to you.

All I care about is PvE, so I can care less what happens with these pets in the air.

[Aggelos]

Actually there are flying mobs

[kytzuma]

i think an air elemental or something along those lines... but since mostly they hover anyway... no idea

[Quiggly]

They could possibly have the elemental change into a flying form and fly with you. Ex. if it's a dog on the ground, maybe it could be a bat or an eagle in the air.
