As Final Fantasy XIV first expansion Heavensward launched yesterday, we have reported the main features of this new expansion, one of which is flying mounts. As for flying mounts, how can players ride them? Where can they obtain flying mounts? Now, here is a detailed guide to unlock flying in FFXIV Heavensward.
The essence of flying in Heavensward
As we said before, some of the previously ground-only mounts like Company Chocobo are able to fly in FFXIV first expansion. So the essence of flying in Heavensward is not to obtain some certain flying mounts, but to master how to fly on the new areas in Final Fantasy XIV Heavensward.
The advantage of flying mounts
Everyone should notice that flying mounts won’t work in all areas of the game, but only in those specific to Heavensward such as Ishhgard and Coerthas Western Highlands. Besides, you should also know that flying speed is 200% as opposed to the typical 100% on the ground. When on the ground, flying mounts still run at 100%, not 200% though.
How to unlock flying on mounts
Actually, we gave all FFXIV players a general guide to unlock flying before FFXIV Heavensward releases. But today, we will give you a detailed one about how to fly in Heavensward.
1. Complete the Main Scenario quest (Divine Intervention), which will reward you with your Black Chocobo and the Aether Compass.
2. Use the Aether Compass to find and attune Aether Currents across Heavensward’s zones. There are 15 currents in all of the Heavensward zones, and all of them must be attuned to before you can fly in that zone, apart from Azys Lla.
3. Continue to do main scenario quests in each progressive zone to unlock the other five currents in each zone. Since you will use the compass so often, you can place it on your hotbar.
After you get attuned, you will be able to fly above Heavensward zones for progression and exploration. Would you like to do that? You can buy ffxiv gil from Safewow to open your adventure in FFXIV first new expansion Heavensward. Enjoy it!
