Wings updated

[CHARNAME]

I was wondering what did the latest update bring since I haven't found anything new in the release notes. Then I logged on my FvS and was thrilled to find out that the wings regenerate at the rate of one per 3 seconds while in towns!

Thanks devs!

While I wish it was back to the old way - I'll take it. Zipping through wilderness areas was always the best way to move and I never used wings to kite or anything.

But if this is how it is; so be it. Still doesn't fix the issues with the raid tho.

You complain over gifts you get given on birthdays and holidays don't you.

If you threaten to cut me an arm and then just cut me a finger i'm not going to thank you anyway.

Amen i was not abusing my wings but i am get them nerffed any way this change is better but give me my toy back.

[protokon]

At least this shows that there trying to compromise.

still getting rid of my favored soul though. at least until I see a tasty melee prestige released.

You might not be saying "thank you for only taking my finger and not my arm" but we all know you're going to be grateful that they only took your finger and not your arm.

This modus operandi is so sad and old that i wonder why people always approve it in the end: someone threatens to do something really really really really bad and all complain. Then they just do something bad, and more than half of those who were complaining stop complaining and are grateful.

While I would prefer to just have wings locked out by chains, etc. this is a nice step in a good direction.

Of course, I'd also like to be able to wing out to ADQ, but that's me. Can't have everything.

That would defeat the purpose of wings as a defensive tool.

That would defeat the purpose of wings as a defensive tool.

Which is exactly why the wings were nerfed in the first place.

[Clownpuncher]

fun fun fun or fun fun fun fun.

Or possibly Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun

[voodoogroves]

That would defeat the purpose of wings as a defensive tool.

I, like many, didn't use them that way. Speed, mobility, etc.

Generally speaking, my FVS can take a hit if I pull aggro.

[EliahuTheMighty]

fun Fun Fun Or fun Fun Fun Fun.

Lol
Oh yea, also, hooray for town spammability! I'd prefer it be much more widespread, or even that chains prevent flying (wings could still be defensive, but come on, you can fly when you're chained to the ground. Not many mobs cast chains anyway), but I'll take what I can get.

[Perpetualnoob]

Slightly better, still not enough.
I think they should extend this from being only in town to being everywhere while out of combat. So they're unlimited except for long boss fights which is where the devs wanted them nerfed anyways.
Though, does ddo have a in-combat/out-of-combat distinction? Off the top of my head I can't think of any in game mechanic that makes a distinction for that.
